PS: many systems dont support a notification for screen brightness. it used to work before but its buggy and not accurate. ** Changed in: notify-osd (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Invalid -- notify-osd shows double image for screen brightness control https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/345251 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I haven't noticed the double-notification in 10.04 or 10.10.

the problem was reported for Ubuntu 9.04 and it will be really helpful if you could confirm the existence of this issue with Ubuntu 10.04 or 10.10 Thanks -- notify-osd shows double image for screen brightness control https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/345251 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 345251] Re: notify-osd shows double image for screen brightness control
Ok, I think I may have found out what's causing the problem in my case. After booting, there is just one notify-osd process running. If I press volume increase/decrease keys, I get one notification, as expected. However, if I try to change the brightness using the brightness keyboard keys, another notify-osd process gets started by root. From that point on, I keep getting two notifications for any event. So, changing the brightness somehow requires higher privileges, and hence a new notify-osd process under root is started. Does this make sense? Any idea why brightness should require superuser privileges? -- notify-osd shows double image for screen brightness control https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/345251 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 345251] Re: notify-osd shows double image for screen brightness control
Yes, I see two notification boxes/bubbles - one is themed (uses my custom theme), and one isn't(uses the default theme). I can tell this because the non-themed one takes about half second more to disappear than the themed one. It happens whenever I press the key-sequences to increase either volume or brightness on my laptop computer. Yes, I still get the message on the latest notify-osd. -- notify-osd shows double image for screen brightness control https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/345251 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

hrushikesh, so you see two bubbles rendered on top of each other, but only one notify-osd process? That happens with notify-osd 0.9.11? Please, describe precisely how to reproduce this?

[Bug 345251] Re: notify-osd shows double image for screen brightness control
Hey! 2 processes... That should not happen because we're testing for multiple instances on the bus. Except that it's a session bus, so it means that multiple such busses can exist on the system at the same time. I think the case is rare, and that you should really use different sessions. As a workaround, we could prevent notify-osd from starting for the root user.

[Bug 345251] Re: notify-osd shows double image for screen brightness control
I then switched to another user (without logging out of the first account), and now notify-osd has two processes, one for each user and none for root. The notification is appearing correctly for screen brightness now (ie only one appears). So it does seem likely that the root process is causing the second window. But why would there been a root notify-osd process? In case it's relevant, I rebooted recently (this morning) with an external monitor attached (which isn't attached any more; but I've restarted X since then although I haven't rebooted linux), and I've done 'sudo -s' in gnome- terminal to get a root prompt. -- notify-osd shows double image for screen brightness control https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/345251 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

It's doing it again. What happens is I press the brightness adjust, and the normal notification window appears.

If it makes you feel better, it's not doing it any more after a suspend/resume cycle! Could it have been something to do with font sizes or screen DPI? After I applied the latest updates and rebooted, I seem to recall that all my font sizes had been reset to 13. instead of 10. Is it possible that notify-osd was drawing two windows, one based on a font size of 10 and another a font size of 13.333? -- notify-osd shows double image for screen brightness control https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/345251 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Wow... what the ?! *sigh* I've no machine, which has key for screen- or keyboard-brightness. Right now I've no idea how that can possibly happen. That's a nasty bug to scream into my face at the start of the day. I wonder if other people are able to reproduce this. I'll leave it at "New" until others come around verifying this.
