If no better & more generic solution pops up, you could have the backup script write its "message" to a file in a specific location, and then in the desktop user session watch that file for changes, sending its content to the notify daemon (which can be done with a simple script & 'inotifywait'). For your personal use that might be sufficient, although a more generic solution would be nice... -- Jan Claeys (please don't CC me when replying to the list)
