[Bug 855403] Re: Backup (Deja Dup) on Ubuntu 11.10 opens a backup window when auto backup kicks in and interferes with desktop usage

 

Ok, sounds good. Looking forward to seeing the final release.

** Description changed:

  I was using the Unity desktop on my Ubuntu 11.10 install this morning
  which has a daily backup to my Ubuntu One account enabled. As the
  machine was shut down last night the backup kicked in within a minute or
  two but opened a backup window right in the middle of my desktop. This
  operation should be silent in the background and a notification should
  be given when the operation has completed. It would also be nice if it
  was integrated into the top panel like Time Machine on Macs and would
  indicate to the user that a backup was taking place even if the Unity
  dock was hidden.
  
- In short, the program should maximise itself when the backup kicks in
- and interfere with the users work.
+ In short, the program should not maximise itself when the backup kicks
