Will the app take over the entire desktop, or just one display?

If it only takes one display (Which shoulds like the proper behavior, but many 
apps were not written with multi-head setups in mind), just set 
DISPLAY="host:0.x" where x is the number of the monitor and the app should pop 
up on that screen.
