Chris J Arges,
4 years have passed but thank you for your support. :-)
The startup notification now works but has some big flaws.
Since this is a patch to openbox I will do the tests in a stable and
standard-compliant environment to see if the bug persists or not.
Environment: Debian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch) with XFCE 4 + Openbox 3.6.1-4 +
notification-daemon installed
Hardware: Core i5, 8Gb RAM
CHANGELOG:
openbox (3.6.1-3) unstable; urgency=medium
* debian/control:
+ Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.8.
+ Use secured links for VCS.
+ Add libxcursor-dev to B-D. (Closes: #838326, LP: #1336521)
NOTE: "LP: #1336521" is *this* bug in notifications.
Tests:
[Test Case 1]
0. Started cpulimit to limit the execution to 3% of the total CPU power.
1. Started Cheese 3.22.1 with startup notifications enabled (manually enabled
from desktop file) from a desktop file.
2. No spinning cursor at all.
Failed.
[Test Case 2]
0. Started cpulimit to limit the execution to 10% of the total CPU power.
1. Started Cheese 3.22.1 with startup notifications enabled (manually enabled
from desktop file) from a desktop file.
2. No spinning cursor at all.
Failed.
[Test Case 3]
1. Started IDLE 3.5.3 with startup notifications enabled (default) from a
desktop file.
2. The spinning cursor appears only on the window and lasts for many seconds.
The application has been started and the user can already work... but the
cursor keeps spinning.
Failed?
[...many other tests with similar results, sometimes it works, other
times does not]
I do not know where the problem is (changelog says the issue was
closed...) but I cannot say that the startup notification is correctly
supported.
Still, I am grateful for your efforts.
Regards,
Lorenzo
