I'm using it from the beta1, and I must say that it is awesome; apart from those notifications zero-interaction zero-configuration, I hate them!!!

- freehunter 14y agoThe notifications in the newer Ubuntu really do irritate me. In releases of old (if my memory is correct), notifications could be clicked to bring up the program that was notifying you. Now they just go semi-transparent and can't be clicked, so I have to open the program manually. Not a huge deal, but it could have a better UX by being interactive (I'd love to be able to reply to a chat message within the notification window, ala Digsby).
- beagle3 14y ago> Now they just go semi-transparent and can't be clicked I'm running 10.10 and it's the same as you describe. Which I think is the right way to do it, for anything that pops up unexpectedly. Thunderbird (and others) doe notifications the way you describe, but I don't think ubuntu (or any other distribution, or even osx for that matter) ever let you click directly on the system-wide notifications.
- desas 14y agoIn ubuntu they used to work like that until 10.04. In other distributions it's still common IIRC. Ubuntu swapped out the common notification daemon for one called notify-osd.
