Hi David, The notification shows perfectly when I type: notify-send "Hello" "World".
Maybe I need to explain a bit more: I can see the notification for any IM message, EXCEPT for the IM messages which starts a conversation. For example: 1. I start Pidgin. 2. Alice says me "Hello!". Result: the notification is NOT shown, because her IM message starts our conversation. 3. Alice then says "How are you?". Result: the notification IS shown, because this is her second IM message and it doesn't start a conversation (the previous conversation is still opened). 4. Alice then says "Are you there?". Result: the notification IS shown, because again her IM message doesn't start a conversation. 5. Now Bob says me "Hi!". Result: the notification is NOT shown, because his IM message starts a conversation. 6. New Alice says me "Hi again!". Result: the notification IS shown, because her IM message doesn't start a convesation. 7. Now I close the Alice message (or tab in a tabbed Pidgin window), so the Alice conversation is now closed. 8. Alice says me "Hey!". Result: the notification is NOT shown, because I previously closed her window, and now her new IM message starts a new conversation. I hope that now everything is clear. -- The first IM message from a buddy does not launch a notification bubble https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/363108 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
