Startup Notification?

2012-12-14 Thread Walter Hurry
I'm running FreeBSD 9.1RC3 with LXDE and OpenBox.

The startup-notification port is installed (it's required by a number of 
other ports anyway), but I don't actually see any form of visual 
notification when opening GUI applications. For many of these (e.g. 
lxterminal, pcmanfm) this doesn't matter, since they appear virtually 
instantaneously, but for others (like firefox) the lack is something of a 
nuisance.

Am I missing an optional port, or is there a configuration file somewhere 
which I need to edit?

This narrative should give you some clue:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/11462

Find a file like e.g. mozilla-firefox.desktop that will look similar to this:
...
Exec=firefox %u
Icon=firefox
Terminal=false
Type=Application
StartupWMClass=Firefox-bin
MimeType=text/html;text/xml;application/xhtml+xml;application
/vnd.mozilla.xul+xml;text/mml;
StartupNotify=true
X-Desktop-File-Install-Version=0.15
Categories=Network;WebBrowser;
