[Bug 1403583] Re: notify-osd does not work with Metacity

 

Notify OSD is using many deprecated functions. Then there are other
warnings. It might be good idea to fix warnings. Does someone still
develop / maintain Notify OSD?

expose_handler function in bubble.c has wrong parameter...
GdkEventExpose should be cairo_t.

Replacing gtk_widget_realize with gtk_widget_show in bubble.c made
notifications work again. So maybe something has changed in GTK+ that
prevents notifications to show up? But then why it works with other
window managers except metacity?

Title:
  notify-osd does not work with Metacity

Status in Ubuntu GNOME Flashback:
  New
Status in metacity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  On Ubuntu 15.04 vivid, notifications (via notify-osd) do not work in
  GNOME Flashback (Metacity) session, but do work in GNOME Flashback
  (Compiz) session.

  I believe it is a regression in recent Metacity versions, though
  cannot get it working even with older Metacity (3.12).
