As requested in the thread of bug 331369, I post my comments here too:

I have a multi-monitor setup, with two monitors of different size -
primary is 1920x1200 and second is 1280x1024. Both connected to a Nvidia
card, using TwinView. They are aligned at the bottom edge, with panels
at the bottom.

If I understand things correctly, putting the panels at the bottom puts
notify-osd in some fallback mode where notifications are displayed top
right. This would not be a major problem for me if the notifications
were displayed within the visible area. But they are not! Instead they
are displayed within the "dead" 1280x176 pixel area above my second
screen. So I can't see them at all.

This has forced me to revert to the old notification system. For others
who have this problem, this can be done easily using gnome-
stracciatella-session:
