Move to Another Viewport in Beryl

When I was using Edgy+Beryl, I could easily move window to another viewport/workspace just by right clicking on the window title bar and choose “Move to Another Viewport”.
Move to Another Viewport

But in Feisty+Beryl, I didn’t found that feature. First I thought it’s because I use Beryl 0.2.0 (I was using Beryl-SVN in Edgy). So I upgraded my Beryl using Beryl-SVN (it’s 0.3.0) and still haven’t found what I’m looking for.
From Beryl forum, I found that the problem is in libwnck18 and libwnck-common. Feisty has version 2.18.0-0ubuntu1 for those packages. So I try to downgrade those two packages into 2.16.1-0ubuntu1.1 using this beryl repo (they said it’s a modified packages)

deb http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org/ feisty main

After I downgraded both packages and re-login to my GNOME desktop, I finally found what i’m looking for. It makes my computing life easier. :D

Note:

  • I don’t responsible if anything happens if you downgrade those two packages.
  • The side effect is that you will have a notification to upgrade those two packages. (You can use “lock version” in Synaptic to prevent upgrades notification for those packages, but I didn’t because I want to know if there are an update for those packages) Thanks to John and imtheface for reminding me.
