So I assume you already have an X Server running on that monitor?
Or do you want one X Server and one app on the second head and Gnome stuff
on the first? I believe the latter one is not easily feasible.

Anyways, it is the responsibility of the X Server to choose which monitors
to use. (You can have multiple X Servers running and switch between them)
Even if all Gnome windows were limited to your first screen, your
second one would be occupied as well.
I strongly assume you must tell your X Server not to use the second screen.
