[Bug 835972] Re: after resume the "Disconnected - you are now offline" notification doesn't disappear

 

Note: for those who just want a quick fix, it might help to put
something like this

#!/bin/sh
case "${1}" in
    resume|thaw)
	( sleep 2 ; /usr/bin/killall /usr/lib/xfce4/notifyd/xfce4-notifyd ) &
	( sleep 4 ; /usr/bin/killall /usr/lib/xfce4/notifyd/xfce4-notifyd ) &
     ;;
esac

in /etc/pm/sleep.d/49_killall_notify, remember to chmod +x.

(this is for Xubuntu; on regular Ubuntu it might be "killall notify-osd"
instead of xfce4-notifyd, you might also need to tweak the sleep times)

Title:
  after resume the "Disconnected - you are now offline" notification
  doesn't disappear

Status in “network-manager-applet” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “xfce4-notifyd” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Observed behaviour:
  When I resume from standby, the "Disconnected - you are now offline" notification (which probably appeared when standby was started) stays on the screen and doesn't go away until I close it manually.
  Network (LAN - eth0) works, so in fact I'm online and the notification is false.
  Notifications are set to disappear after 4 seconds, which they do, except this naughty one.

  Expected behaviour:
  The "Disconnected - you are now offline" notification should not appear or disappear after the selected amount of time.
  The best thing would be to display a "Connected - you are now online" notification.

  used version:
  0.2.1-1 on Xubuntu Natty
  (all updates up to date)
