There was a tool to configure notifications in earlier versions of Ubuntu as described here. I tried to install it in Ubuntu 12.04 too but I failed.
I want to have the notifications dynamically located (e.g. notifications for music player and volume control will be shown at the same place) and to reduce the notification duration.
How do I change settings of notifications?
Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but shouldn't the commands (run separately)
notify-send -t 1 "test"
notify-send -t 1000 "test"
notify-send -t 10000 "test"
have different timeouts? The first being nearly instantaneous, the second taking 1 sec and the third 10 seconds? In all cases it seems to take about six seconds for me.
Is there a way around this behaviour? As the developers label this as a "feature" instead of a bug, I would like some alternatives.
I wrote a python code for getting random text into a .txt file. Now I want to send this random text into notification area via 'notify-send' command. How do we do that?
If I walk away from my PC, then there is a good chance I might miss certain notifications. I've seen in KDE that notifications get stored and stacked until you click them (or whatever).
Unless I'm missing something, Ubuntu doesn't seem to have a history of clickable notifications.
Is there a way to do this?
Is there a way you can disable or customize the notification bubbles on Lucid?
