I use FreeBSD 7 and KDE 4.2
In gnome when I switch or go to another Desktop , if I open files or application in first Desktop , after switch I do not see what application is open in second desktop

but in KDE 4.2 , this is not happen for example in first desktop I open Terminal and Firefox and file manager , and all of them are shown in panel and I can see them in all of them in near of clock

when I change Desktop and go to Second Desktop and open Opera , I see all open application in panel and I can see which application are open

I do not want see open application of first desktop in another desktop in panel
like GNOME
what I must do ?

I don`t use KDE4 yet but in KDE3 you should change your taskbar behaviour to not show windows from other desktops. Look into your preferences.

Have you tried to configure KDE at all?
I can tell you It's simple, just read options and find the right one

I haven't been using KDE for ages


hint: start configuring with panel

mfaridi your question is pretty much KDE4 related. I suggest you browse the project's homepage and the help files that the desktop environment installed.

I have KDE3 installed in a desktop and you can configure it the way you want. I'd presume that KDE4 will have similar options.

Yes, you just right click on the taskbar and change its options. It's pretty intuitive.
