Problem with virtual desktops

[Timothy Murphy]

I am running Fedora-16 KDE on my laptop,
with 8 virtual desktops.
If I click on the pager widget in the panel
(not sure of the proper name for this)
highlighting eg desktop 3,
and then click on the Terminal icon in the panel,
a konsole window is opened,
but not in the desktop I chose.
As far as I can see, the desktop is more or less random.
This is annoying, because it often covers a window already in use.

How can I open a terminal in a given desktop, please?
