notifications

[Neal Becker]

Up until now, notifications showed up in the notification area near the 
panel.  After last update (I think) notifications are showing up as annoying 
yellow rectangles which mostly appear on the right top of the screen.  These 
boxes clutter up the screen and have to be clicked to remove.

Anyone know why the behavior suddenly changed and how to restore the 
original?

Thanks,
Neal

Your symptom can show if a notification applet isn't running.  Do you have
one?  (or possible that plasmashell crashed?)

Thanks for the quick response.  There is an icon (a circle with !) in the 
panel for notifications, it just says 'no notifications' if I left click on 
it.  But there are notifications that have popped up as described.

No messages in .xsession-errors that appear related.

Lots of messages in /var/log/messages like

Try running from konsole (or whatever):

kdialog --passivepopup "notification test"

Does that show correctly in the applet or incorrectly as you described the
original problem?

Nothing shows on the screen - notification in panel still says 'no 
notification.  /var/log/messages says:

At just about the same time

After logout/login, then running
kdialog --passivepopup
does show a notification in a yellow rectangle at the right top.  The 
notification icon in the panel still says 'no notifications'

In addition, on creating a new test user, he/she sees the same notification 
behavior (ugly yellow rectangles).

Hi,

don't you have other DE's installed? I had similar issue when having MATE
installed alongside Plasma. Somehow, its notification daemon was being
started even within Plasma session taking over from plasma notification
daemon, and resulting in notification being shown in the ugly yellow boxes
you mention.
