This affects 12.10 too. GDMSESSION is 'gnome', /usr/lib/notification-daemon/notification-daemon does not exist. I use gdm instead of lightdm with a gnome-shell session. Although in my case notify-osd is not launched when I log in, but, rather, when I resume from suspend.
Is there a way to distinguish gnome-shell sessions from legacy gnome sessions? Perhaps the if could be restructured so that notify-osd is only launched for ubuntu sessions? In other words, if the session is a gnome session, and notification-daemon doesn't exist, let's not launch notify-osd instead? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/943010 Title: notify-osd starts automatically in gnome session and prevents gnome- shell from owning notifications dbus service To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/notify-osd/+bug/943010/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
