[request] Virtual Desktops

I'm not absolutely sure if this is the best forum, but I'm looking for a simple no-frills program that will let me have virtual desktops, ie mulitiple desktops to organize all the programs. Specifically looking for minimal resources, only needs to be able to move windows to another desktop. If you have used Fedora Core, they have their virtual desktop thing on the taskbar that seems to be what I'm looking for. I've seen something called Dexpot, but just wondering if there were others people here have used and really like.

Thanks.

Kvwm is quite minimal, http://methodik.pixelarmy.org/scripts/dl.p...=Kvwm-1.0.2.zip

The only window moving option it has is move all windows to one desktop.

I personally just move windows; by minimizing, change desktop, and restoring the window.

Also Microsoft made one, haven't messed with it in a while, but remember liking it.

That might be a little too minimal...if it moves everything at once.

What do you mean? Is this in reference to Kvwm?

Sorry for not clarifying, it is a reference to kvwm.

On sourceforge there's a few desktop managers that act more like linux ones.

EDIT: Virtual Dimension should be the one you want.

Its on sourceforge...

If you'd like more things on your desktop to be done the Linux way, consider giving LiteStep a try.
