Lubuntu 11.10 notifications

[jango]

Hi

How can i change lubuntu notifications style and position???

[whatthefunk]

I dont know about 11.10, but in older versions, you open a file manager and go to /usr/share/applications In this directory is a program called Pop-Up Notifications. Open this and you can change the settings for notifications.

Hi,

You should try in the Terminal, if it is the same that I have it must be

Code: Select all

notification-properties

Click enter and you should be able to change it

I'm still using Lubuntu 11.04 (didn't have time to install or upgrade) and it works for me here too.

And to make everyone's life easier:

1) Open PCManFM > Tools > Open Current Folder as Root

2) Go to: /usr/share/applications/notification-properties.desktop

3) Open with Leafpad

4) Copy and Paste this then Save and Exit:

Code: Select all

[Desktop Entry]
Name=Pop-Up Notifications
Comment=Set your pop-up notification preferences
Exec=notification-properties
Icon=notification-properties
Terminal=false
Type=Application
StartupNotify=true
Categories=GNOME;GTK;Settings;
#OnlyShowIn=GNOME;
NoDisplay=false
X-Ubuntu-Gettext-Domain=notification-daemon


5) DONE


OR ...

Code: Select all

sudo leafpad /usr/share/applications/notification-properties.desktop

And use the same code above.
