Re: [Trisquel-users] notify-send not working

[mikko . viinamaki]

The programs might use the notify library to work the magic but you might not  
have the external binary (notify-send) installed. It's in the package  
libnotify-bin.

Having said that, whereas the default notify thingy is quite pretty, it's  
sadly also pretty dumb. E.g. its developers decided that the end user must  
not be able to change the time a notification is displayed... Because of  
ideas like that I've switched to osd_cat command from xosd-bin package.
