** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: notify-osd
  
  Just noticed that the recent notify-osd behavior ,in Karmic, suppresses
  all the async notifications during full screen apps!
  
  This is a bit frustrating , because now 
  - I'm not notified about loss of network connectivity!
  - when IM messages are received the lack of notifications forces me to escape 
from full-screen mode and check with the IM client as to who sent the IM . 
Previously it was easier to know who had sent it and i could choose if i wanted 
to reply immediately or not.
  - I'm not notified about new mail arrivals.
  
  I believe there was a lengthy discussion in the Ayatana Mailing list and the 
decision was to :
  - Use a DND mode in the FUSA/indicator-session
  - Not show notifications only when the user has selected the DND mode.
  
  If the DND is not possible to implement in this cycle , Kindly dont
  suppress the notifications.
+ 
+ I didnt notice this behavior earlier , i just imagined I missed the
+ notifications when using fullscreen apps.
+ 
+ I think it started occurring from update notify-osd (0.9.19-0ubuntu1) to
+ 0.9.20-0ubuntu1 . 
+ 
+ Ever since the slots have been assigned i have never seen the async bubbles
+ when running any app in full screen mode. [firefox , totem, vlc , OOo.org , 
EOG]
