** Description changed: When I log into Ubuntu 11.10's gnome-shell session, notify-osd is started first when I attempt to run a program that calls notifications. I have to manually kill notify-osd and restart gnome-shell, every time I log in. I mentioned this problem in LP #830467 but that bug is technically not the same issue, and that bug received no traffic or attempts to fix the bug in the last four months. Expected behavior: -Log into Gnome, open quodlibet, see gnome-shell notification on the bottom of the screen Actual behavior: - -Log into gnome, open quodlibet, see notify-osd notification in upper left corner and notify-osd appears in the process list + -Log into gnome, open quodlibet, see notify-osd notification in upper right corner and notify-osd appears in the process list Since removing notify-osd from Ubuntu is not possible, configuring the code that is run when notify-osd is started, presumably when there is a call made on dbus for notifications, such that if gnome-shell is running it is always favored over notify-osd. In the meantime it seems the only workaround for gnome-shell users is to remove notify-osd.
