Hummm.... What did you do before it break?
Can you check if the file /etc/xdg/autostart/update-notifier.desktop exists? Can you run the command 'update-notifier' from a terminal window and paste here the result? This error is very strange. Since i started using edgy this sort of bug never happened with me. -- notifier is not shown anymore https://launchpad.net/bugs/66439 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
