Fix the initial workspaces setup code. #571091 (2.92 KB, patch)

Description Owen Taylor 2009-02-09 21:03:45 UTC 
If things are on multiple workspaces when the session starts, everything gets squashed to the first workspace.

It appear the "remove empty workspaces" code is not working as expected.

hm... mutter_plugin_get_windows() returns NULL from Main.start() because it's called too early in mutter startup

Fix the initial workspaces setup code. #571091

mutter_plugin_get_windows() returns NULL at plugin-initialization time,
so we have to wait until idle time to figure out which workspaces are
being used and remove the unused ones.
