There are no config files at this time to position notify-osd from what
I can see.   Looks like its been decided to hardcode in the position to
the upper right of the screen..  This is a nightmare when considering we
remove the upper panel right away from all new ubuntu installations
because users we are switching over from windows want to have something
as familiar as possible during their transition.. Its hard enough to get
users to switch, and then when we get them to do it, we would like it to
be as easy for them as possible.  This means notifications down by the
system tray in the lower right, and a single panel, and no wasting
screen real-estate with a 2nd top panel.

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.
