The rough script below could be converted into a "gnome-wall" that is
called at the very start of rc0.d and rc6.d, followed by a long sleep,
to warn all users of the impeding system interruption.
Of course, this is a rough hack.
Ideally, GNOME would simply have a way to catch all wall messages
(such as those issued by 'reboot') and to display them via the
notification area.
#!/bin/bash
for PID in $(pgrep metacity); do
DISPLAY=$(cat /proc/${PID}/environ | tr '\0' '\n' | grep DISPLAY | sed -e
's/DISPLAY=//')
XAUTHORITY=$(cat /proc/${PID}/environ | tr '\0' '\n' | grep XAUTH | sed -e
's/XAUTHORITY=//')
zenity --info --text="$1"
done
#EOF
PS: the above script was hacked by LTSP developer Scott Balneaves.

Hi,
I am closing these bugs as they are either unapplicable to modern
notification-daemon versions, cannot be reproduced, or are unrelated to
the project.
If you think one of the bugs still applies to notification-daemon 3.18, please
feel free to reopen it. Also feel free to reply to me in private if you have
any questions.
I want to highlight that the Notification Daemon is a standalone program that
shows notifications sent via FreeDesktop.org Notifications interface.
Notification Daemon is *not*:
- a tool to *send* the notifications (notify-send is such a tool);
- a tool to display system information like volume/brightness level (this
functionality is provided by i.e. gnome-flashback);
- a panel applet;
- an official part of GNOME project (GNOME Shell uses its own notifications
system).
