Binary package hint: notify-osd
I have a disk that is about to fail (Disk Utility says so) in the
computer and there are two warning windows opened every 20-30 min or so.
So if I leave computer unattended there is a HUGE number of the windows
opened...
This used to work fine before Natty because instead of many new windows
there was only one icon in the notification area. The icon is gone now
but the warning windows keep popping up.
I also tried to find a way to stop the Disk Utility warnings (no luck
yet) but one way or another there shouldn't be unlimited number of
warning windows open for repeated warnings.
The reason I am reporting this a notify-osd bug is because the warning
windows belong to /usr/lib/notify-osd/notify-osd (as indicated by xprop
_NET_WM_PID):
steffl@hangplace:~$ xprop _NET_WM_PID
_NET_WM_PID(CARDINAL) = 1998
steffl@hangplace:~$ ps ax|grep 1998
1998 ? Sl 0:00 /usr/lib/notify-osd/notify-osd
10808 pts/0 S+ 0:00 grep --color=auto 1998
steffl@hangplace:~$ xprop _NET_WM_PID
_NET_WM_PID(CARDINAL) = 1998
steffl@hangplace:~$ ubuntu-bug 1998
