Public bug reported:
In Xubuntu Lucid, popup notifications such as new IMs, people signing in
etc. appear over the top of the screensaver. This is possibly the same
as Bug #21172 but that is "Fix Released" and the last post is in 2005.
I'm not sure if this is a libnotify issue or a pidgin issue.

I feel that this is a privacy issue and that these notifications
shouldn't go over the screensaver.
