Notification not working.

Post by rsamurti »

Hello,

When I unmount a pen drive notification about safe removal of the drive does not come.

I think xfce (thunar) probably has been compiled with no support for it. I'll check, but I don't think we can fix it without redoing the whole xfce package.

Yes indeed, thunar needs some patch to notify when an USB key is plugged or removed.

Please try this xfce package:
http://pnboy.pinguix.com/gapan/salix/xf ... 86-1gv.txz

It's compiled with a new exo version, so it fixes a long standing bug with vfat usb drives and also compiled with support for libnotify, so you will now have notifications when unmounting devices. The package will enter the repos as soon as it has been tested a bit.
