@David
this is certainly not apparant in 0.9.11-0ubuntu1 on my setup.  I, like others 
in this thread, have a single panel at the bottom of the screen but 
notifications appear top right.  With  a 24" 1920x1200 setup, I rarely see them.

The focus-follow fix would be an improvement (any news on when that
might land?) but a configurable location would still be infinitely
preferable.  Bug 346095 (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source
/notify-osd/+bug/346095) shows some of the strength of feeling about
this kind of thing.  It doesn't appear to be a dupe of this, but
probably should be.

Cheers,
Darren.

regression vs. notification-daemon: positioning when multiple screens are

Bug description:
Binary package hint: notify-osd

I use nvidia TwinView (one X desktop across two monitors). notification-daemon 
was apparently sensitive to this (presumably through Xinerama info?) and would 
popup on my primary screen.

notify-osd seems to be unaware of this, and appears in the top right of the 
overall viewport, which is on my secondary screen, and less visible, so less 
useful as a notifier.
