I had a similar problem to this. I'm using Ubuntu Studio, which of course doesn't use the Ubuntu-desktop meta package, so notify-osd wasn't installed during the upgrade from intrepid to jaunty.
I searched for notify-osd in synaptic and installed it. Then I tested it with some of the commands posted above. It didn't work -- it told me some lib file had to be installed. I don't remember which one, I just copy and pasted it at the end of apt-get line to install it. After that I tried the commands again and notifications started working, but in the old style. So I restarted X, and now it's all working properly. Seems like there really should be a fix with this ubuntu-desktop meta package, though, as not everyone uses it -- and different versions of Ubuntu don't use it at all. -- New notification system not working after upgrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/366920 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
