A couple of concerns: the last commit to gdevilspie source was in Jun 12, 2010 devilspie is no longer maintained; development moved to devilsipe2 but that project is now looking for a new maintainer: ? http://www.nongnu.org/devilspie2/ devilspie2 is in epel (and Fedora). devilspie and gdevilspie packages come from nux. -- Ian
