2009-02-20 12:17:17 Matthew Paul Thomas title Jaunty: new notification system does move when using popup notifications "Notification Settings" is available but has no effect when Notify OSD is used
2009-02-20 12:21:51 Matthew Paul Thomas description Jaunty's new notification system stays in the top right corner even though I've changed it to bottom left in popup notification This is based on an install and update dated 20090219 and updated Jaunty includes a "System" > "Preferences" > "Notification Settings" window (/usr/bin/notification-properties) that lets you choose what theme notification-daemon bubbles use, and in which corner of the screen they appear. When Notify OSD is being used, this settings window is still available, so someone might reasonably expect it still to work, but it has no effect. Either Notify OSD should obey the settings, or the "Notification Settings" window should not be available when Notify OSD is being used instead of notification-daemon.

2009-02-20 17:22:23 Martin Pitt stracciatella-session: statusexplanation This can't be fixed in stracciatella-session, since that's not even installed by default, and *if* you are running it, then you do want the menu entry. We currently do not have a way to show/hide menu entries based on $GDMSESSION, and using OnlyShowIn= doesn't work. One option would be to introduce a new field X-ShowIf: which runs a command which determines whether or not to display it, but that's (a) hackish and (b) won't be accepted upstream probably. But since neither notification-daemon nor stracciatella-session are installed by default now, I downgrade its importance a bit.
