ctrl-Fn where "n" is the desktop number
so for instance if you are using desktop 1 and 2 you will hit ctrl-f2 to switch to desktop2 if you are in desktop one, etc.etc.

In GNOME, by default

Alt + 1, Alt + 2, Alt + 3 etc..

To change it, go to

StartHere -> Preference -> keyboard shortcuts

and change.


In KDE, Ctr + F2, Ctr + F3 , etc

To change,
Go to KDE control center -> Look & Feel -> Shortcuts

Thanks. Like I said, stupid n00b question. The answer is (in RH 9.0 anyway) by default: Ctrl Alt <arrow key> to move up, down, left and right.

d'oh.
