Hi
I am using Debian Stretch on both of my laptops. I use Gnome desktop. I
have installedd all updates available.
For some reason I do not get any network notifications. If I e.g connect
to wifi network, disconnect from it or if the connection just gets
disconnected for some reason then I do not get any notification. That is
not good.
Notifications are activated in the Gnome settings. Network application
notifications are also activated. I have activated both sound alerts and
notification banners. I get no sound alerts and no notification
banners. The same happens on both of my laptops.
I am blind so it is difficult for me to try to solve this. I have no
idea in which package the problem is.
I have noticed one thing. When I go to Network's notification settings
(Gnome desktop's settings: Settings->Notifications->Network)and switch
the notification banner on or o ff then Orca says "Not pressed Not
pressed" or "Pressed Pressed". So it says two times "Not pressed" or
"Pressed". The does not happen if I switch notifacation banners on or
off for some other application, it happens only if I change Network's
notification settings. Maybe this is a sign of bug somewhere.
I do get e.g e-mail notifications from Mailnag etc.
Similarly I also do not get anysoftware update notifications. When there
is updates available I do not get any notification. I have noticed that
even if there really is updates available I get no notification about
that. It does not seem to matter if my computer is connected to wifi or
mobile broadband. The same happens on both of my laptops. This is not
good at all.
There really should be both network and update notifications, those are
important part of desktop.
I do not know if it somehow causes problems that I have both Gnome and
Mate desktop installed. I really do not know how could that cause the
problem, and as I said I do get e.g e-mail notifications from Mailnag I
will most likely uninstall Mate at some point because I like Gnome more.
I do not really use Mate .
Any idea what is wrong? Thanks in advance.
