I've replicated this many times. The switch is the problem as it looks... It's alwayes the same thing. Does anyone know anything about this? Any light would help.

Well, that's quite odd, since it's relatively easy to setup multiple workspaces on GNOME. It could be acceptable _if_ it was a hidden feature, but you can use it as easy as theming... Cheers.
