Actually, the way I did it was to click on Applications -> System Tools
-> Configuration Editor. Then in the GConf window that appears, I
navigated the tree in the left pane to /apps/metacity/general. Finally,
I double-clicked on num_workspaces in the right-hand pane and changed
the number from 4 to 6. The changes were immediately made, so I closed
GConf at that point. Voila. =op
