[mythtv-users] NVidia Dual XScreen and Gnome Panel

I have a dual head/X screen setup.
I'm wanting to use screen0 as an ordinary computer
desktop.
I'm wanting to use screen1 as an output for mythtv.
Problem is that I don't want the Gnome panel to show
up on screen1, as when I select something on screen0
the gnome panel appears over the top of mythtv on
screen1.
Deleting the panel on screen1 doesn't work, as when
the session is ended and restarted the dreaded panel
which I deleted previously comes back to screen1.

Any ideas?

Thanks
Graeme
