Public bug reported: Binary package hint: pidgin
I did not have this problem with Pidgin in Ubunttu 8.04. The Buddy List used to show a notification of any unread messages at the top. The problem started when I upgraded to Ubuntu.10 (and Pidgin 2.5.2). It persisted even after I activated the "Message Notification 2.5.2" Plugin. The "Configure Plugin" of this item includes: Notify in IM windows Chat windows All 3 checked Focused Windows Notification Methods Prepend string into window title: Insert count of new messages into window title All 4 checked Insert count of new messages into X property Set window manager "URGENT" hint. However, "Buddy List" does not appear anywhere on this Configuration and, indeed, the List is not affected., ProblemType: Bug Architecture: i386 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 8.10 ExecutablePath: /usr/bin/pidgin NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Package: pidgin 1:2.5.2-0ubuntu1.4 ProcEnviron: PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: pidgin Uname: Linux 2.6.27-14-generic i686 ** Affects: pidgin (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: apport-bug -- No notification of unread messages (and number thereof) on Buddy List. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/420147 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
