I have been looking for a shell like program, that will give me more than 1 desktop. I know there are a couple around but they dont do what I am after.

What I am looking for is a shell program where I can have say 3 desktops, with independant Icons. What I mean is If I have an Icon on desktop 1. it isnt on any of the others. In the same way that Linux works.

Totally seperate desktops. So I can put all my "Work" stuff on one. And my "Games" on another and the icons are not mixed.

Any suggestions appreciated.

u may try using Hidravision from ATI
but dunno whether it works on nvdia gc or not...
