I use it on the shelf. There is one thing which has always bothered me,- that is the fact that the notification module does not seem to respect the urgency level. I have just now tried the following with a clean and new config with only notification module enabled in addition to the default enabled modules.
1. If I send the command *e-notify-send -u "low" "test" "test 2"* then the icon remains in the module box even though I have specified in the configuration that it should not store the icons for the low level, that is "Levels of urgency to store" has "low" disabled. 2. On the other hand if I remove the tick marks on *all* the urgency levels, then it does work and does not show the icon. 3. If I tick only 'normal' urgency level to store, and do a *e-notify-send -u critical "test" "test 2"* then it does not show the icon, but the command with '-u low' shows the icon. 4. I just now noticed that the "Levels of urgency to popup" in the configuration under "Extensions" has "low" disabled. Still I always got popups when I tried the above commands with '-u low'. 5. In the very beginning when you first introduced this module, it took me quite some time to figure out that the configuration dialog was split into two parts and one part was under "Extensions", the other part being accessible from the shelf. It is just a personal remark that I did not expect there to be further configuration present under "Extensions". With all the negative comments above, I must say one positive comment: the rest of the module works absolutely fine. I have configured it heavily in my original .e config, tweaking *all* the checkboxes/sliders I could find. :D Since you are trying to clean up the module, I thought it would be a good time to bring up this bug :D ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The NEW KODAK i700 Series Scanners deliver under ANY circumstances!
