This is an annoying issue for me on with precise (12.04) I have several workspaces and dual-monitors. When there is one full- screen application on any of the workspaces or monitors, I do not get notify-osd notifications - this is a problem.
Steps to reproduce: 1) Trigger a notification and observe that it on the screen. 2) Open an application in fullscreen on workspace 1 3) switch to workspace 2 4) Trigger/receive a notification (pidgin, libnotify/notify-send, etc.) 5) Observe that no notification is displayed (this is the the issue) I expected to observe the notification in step 5 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/550566 Title: Full-screen window prevents notification on other workspaces or monitors To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/notify-osd/+bug/550566/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
