lamalexDoes the indicator still change when people sign on? I thought it was decided to kill that behaviour at uds02:07
hyperairis notify-osd supposed to ignore CloseNotification calls?11:49
* hyperair tickles MacSlow 11:51
MacSlowno11:51
MacSlowyes11:51
MacSlowwell11:51
MacSlowyou can issue that on DBus, but it'll not close the notification-bubble11:52
MacSlowas that sort of control lies only within the scope of notify-osd itself, but not the applications11:52
hyperairit's a little annoying in the case of banshee.11:52
MacSlowhyperair, is that causing it to hang?11:52
hyperairbanshee closes its notifications and opens a new one11:52
hyperairno, not causing it to hang11:53
MacSlowah good11:53
hyperairbut causing notifications to stack up11:53
hyperairthere's another issue which may or may not be related to this, i.e. banshee and notify-osd both leak memory together11:53
hyperairi can't pinpoint when it happens11:53
hyperairit just does.11:54
MacSlowhyperair, the method of dealing with notifications (in case notify-osd is identified to be the responsbile notification-damon running on a system) is this11:54
MacSlowtoss out a notification11:54
MacSlowkeep it's id (notification object)11:54
hyperairmmhmm11:54
MacSlowwhen a new one need to be shown, just try to update the old one11:54
hyperairah. update the old one eh..11:54
MacSlowif the old one is gone already, it (notify-osd) will automatically create/open a new one11:55
hyperairi see.11:55
MacSlowif you need/want to append to an existing one use the append hint11:55
hyperairhow does notification-daemon react to this behaviour by the client?11:55
MacSlowhyperair, for these cases there are C, C# and Python examples in notify-osd trunk11:55
MacSlowbzr branch lp:notify-osd11:55
hyperairah thanks11:56
MacSlowcd notify-osd/examples11:56
hyperairi'll check it out11:56

MacSlowthat shoudl get you stated11:56
MacSlowstarted11:56
MacSlowhyperair, do you work on a patch for banshee?11:56
hyperairMacSlow: i might, depending on how irritated this makes me11:57
MacSlowhyperair, sweet... stick to it... go for it!11:57
hyperairheh11:57
hyperairalso depends on time constraints11:57
hyperairif i can find time11:57
* MacSlow crosses fingers11:57
MacSlow:)11:57
hyperairmaybe i'll pass it on to laney11:57
mdc_workusing notify-send i have to supply -t and -u otherwise the messages wont show up? is it supposed to be like that? (if so, the usage text for notify-send should be changed to state this)12:03
hyperairit shows up for me12:06
hyperairMacSlow: actually i've just come up with a patch already (the example's awesome)12:10
hyperairtesting..12:11
MacSlowhyperair, that's what the examples are for... ready to copy&paste stuff12:11
hyperairwell i didn't exactly copy and paste =\12:11
hyperairnotify-sharp sure is an easy to use library12:11
MacSlowhyperair, whatever works best for you... as long as it helps you to get it your stuff done12:12
hyperairhahah12:12
MacSlow:)12:12
hyperairwell thanks for the help anyways. i'll come running back if i have any more notify-osd issues =p12:14
mdc_workhyperair, did you mean that the notify shows up for you?12:30
hyperairmdc_work: yes. notify-send bla shows a notification containing 'bla'12:32
mdc_workhyperair, hmm.. strange.. well, i'll check after next reboot, thanks anyway :)12:34
hyperairMacSlow: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=597099 <-- patch attached12:47
ubot4`Gnome bug 597099 in User Interface "Banshee's notifications stack up when using notify-osd" [Normal,Unconfirmed] 12:47
SiDihyperair: its a patch for banshee12:48
hyperairSiDi: i know it is.12:48
SiDii dont know whats the procedure for bugfix patches / releases after beta, but i suppose if banshee is main then the desktop team would be the guys to review the patch ?12:49
hyperairi'm not asking him to review it.12:49
hyperairi'm just showing it to him in case he was interested.12:49
SiDithe patch has been attached in launchpad too ;)12:49
MacSlowhyperair, so this doesn't get overlooked, file a bug on lp against banshee linking to your bug/patch on gnome-bugzilla12:49
hyperairSiDi: oh right, you weren't around when i was talking to MacSlow earlier12:50
MacSlowhyperair, that way it'll not get lost12:50
SiDihyperair: i wasnt12:50
SiDidid i miss something ?12:50
hyperairMacSlow: it won't. i maintain banshee's package.12:50
hyperair+s12:50
MacSlowSiDi, hyperair worked on banshee using notifications in a more "notify-osd-ish" way12:50
MacSlowhyperair, oh... I didn't know that... was about to ask who maintains banshee deb in debian/ubuntu land :)12:51

hyperair?12:51
* hyperair looks12:51
MacSlowSiDi, hm... sounds related12:51
SiDiwhat about putting the patch there ?12:51
MacSlowhyperair, SiDi: makes sense to me12:51
SiDithat was the bug report i thought you were speaking about, hyperair :)12:51
hyperairSiDi: oh hey there's a patch.12:52
* hyperair feels like he wasted his time12:52
MacSlowhyperair, yeah... just saw it too this very moment12:53
hyperairwell see, this is what happens when you attach patches all over the place and not in the upstream bug tracker12:53
SiDihyperair: :)12:53
MacSlowhyperair, it's Alex Murray "fault" not linking it to banshee upstream 12:53
SiDiat least some ubuntu users to write patches... better than nothing. hyperair, arent you subscribed to banshee bugs in lp ?12:54
SiDithis way you can catch what goes on and put the bugs upstream. usually users wont do it for us ^^12:54
hyperairSiDi: i'm subscribed to the ubuntu/+source/banshee bugs.12:54
hyperairi'm planning to spend sometime to dig through all the bugs to see what's still valid and what's not sometime12:55
SiDiwhen i did for exaile.... it took me several days :D12:56
SiDithere were almost 1K bugs, with some 300 or 400 feature requests and a good 200 invalid or outdated bugs12:56
hyperairwell that sucks.12:57
hyperairby the way, i can't change the importance of any of the bugs.12:57
hyperairhow do i go about that?12:57
MacSlowthey should teach "good bug-report writing" at elementary school :)12:57
