[02:47] hello :) === asac_ is now known as asac === scott__ is now known as ScottK-laptop === evalles_ is now known as effie_jayx === hunger_t is now known as hunger === RainCT_ is now known as RainCT [11:32] * Keybuk wonders why his first instinct when writing a document is still TeX [12:19] could a sponsor for main review scons merge ( bug 226783 ) ? thanks [12:19] Launchpad bug 226783 in scons "Merge scons 0.98.4-1 (main) from Debian unstable (main)" [Wishlist,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/226783 === Tonio__ is now known as Tonio_ [13:38] I would like to display a notification message in the system tray from a cron script, similar to the one presented after a kernel upgrade. How can I do that? I couldn't find any hint in the postinst script of the kernel images.. [13:39] you're probabyl looking for the notification daemon [13:40] laga: might be. So how can I connect to it / use it? [13:40] Actually, you're probably after update-notifier. [13:40] yeah, what he said. :) [13:40] Basically, you want to dump a file in /var/lib/user.d. The kernel postinst should be doing this; that's what you're looking for. [13:41] Is the format of the file documented somewhere? It seems there are some special headers in there [13:43] I don't believe that it is. Or, at least, I don't recall finding such documentation when I was writing one for Xgl. [13:44] I just dropped a file there and it didn't do anything [13:44] in /var/lib/update-notifier/user.d/ ? [13:44] yes [13:44] is update-notifier an ubuntu specific thing? [13:45] Yes. [13:46] that'd explain the lack of documentation :) [13:47] I just downloaded the source. There seems to be some documentation in there [13:49] Ok, one also has to touch /var/lib/update-notifier/dpkg-was-run [13:49] but this is actually not the kind of message that I meant [13:50] With update-notifier, one has to click on the small lamp icon and then the message is displayed in a window. I want to generate a message that directly pops up in the (default) lower right corner [13:59] Ok, I got it. If someone else is interested: such messages can be generated with the libnotify-bin package.
