I saw the following yesterday on Macintouch: Notes and Tips

Jeffery Lay offered more information about a problem with secondary monitors and Mac OS X 10.4.7:

Apple have acknowledged bug reports, saying "After further investigation it has been determined that this is a known issue, which is currently being investigated by engineering." So, if you're having this problem, at least you know it's been acknowledged and is being looked into, and we can hope that a fix will be included in an upcoming software update. Meanwhile, a few partial workarounds have been discovered which may help to reduce your frustration in the short term. - If you disconnect or turn off the second monitor, all is well. - Failing that, if you can, return it to landscape rotation, and problems are reduced (but not stopped). - Next-best is to move the window(s) in which graphical operations are taking place on to the main screen. - Finally, removing "quicktime plug.webplugin" from "/Library/Inernet Plug-Ins" seems to reduce the likelihood of a freeze from embedded movies in Safari. Hopefully there will be a proper fix soon.

[Tiger 10.4.7 on MacBook Pro]

After launch, I move the Textmate window to my second display, working and saving files. What I would like to have happen the next time I open Textmate is for it to remember that it was open on the second display and open there. I can't seem to find any setting to allow this.

Other apps, including Netnewswire and iCal do this. If the second display is not present when they load, they simply load on the primary display.

Thanks for your help.

Quit TextMate and then run (from Terminal):

defaults write com.macromates.textmate OakScreenDisableWindowRestraining 1

That should fix it.
