Documentation shoud be accurate. When it's not there's a bug. There's two ways to fix that kind of a bug: make the software work correctly, or rewrite the documentation.
If the desire for a consistent user interface is to much to make the software work correctly as described in the docs (by having the notification system respect the notify-osd timeout parameter), then notify-osd should be forked into a special Ubuntu version that doesn't have a timeout parameter in the documentation. Ronny might have nothing to add (neither do I really), but he's still right. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/390508 Title: notifyOSD ignores the expire timeout parameter To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/390508/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
