Here is the patch. You need to kill notify-osd and start the new one from the new source code.
notify-send does all the right thing by sending all the data through dbus. On the other hand, notify-osd doesn't respect the "timeout" value sent by notify-send and instead uses the default values. notify-send sends "-1" to denote "default timeout", when "-t" option is "NOT" given. Otherwise, the user specified timeout value is sent. So, what I do is use the default timeout values when "-1" is sent and the user specified value otherwise. I'm not an active developer. So, my fixes might be broken. Please use it with caution :) ** Attachment added: "Patch for using timeout from notify-send" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/35990442/notify-osd_timeout.patch -- notify-send ignores the expire timeout parameter https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/390508 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
