[Bug 1013635] Re: no notification with Skype 4.0.0.7

 

Hello and thank you for this bug report

Unfortunately, if Skype devs decide to only send a notification to its
Unity launcher, we can do nothing to see this notification on Cairo-
Dock. But it's a bit strange because all other applications send a
signal to the X server when the user has to be warned and I don't
understand why they don't do the same thing! (because Unity dock is not
used on Gnome Shell, KDE, XFCE, Cairo-Dock session, OpenBox, etc.)

So, for me it's a bug in Skype, don't hesitate to report it to Skype
devs ;)

PS: note that it's expected to catch Unity notifications (quick-info,
progress bar, menu and notifications) in the next version of Cairo-Dock
;)

Title:
  no notification with Skype 4.0.0.7

Status in Cairo-Dock : Core:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Unfurtunately, after the release of Skype 4.0.0.7 yesterday many users
  experienced a problem that they don't receive notifications about new
  skype messages. When we receive new messages we only see a
  notification on Unity launcher (Ubuntu 12.04) but Cairo dock is doing
  nothing.

  Here is an attachment with the screenshot - Unity has a notification
  and also Skype gives an option to see popup messages. Cairo does
  nothing here
