I don't get this "unread notifications" place. In GNOME 3, they popup
almost always. In latest versions the popup is sometimes shown with a
delay, but IIRC that's decided by gnome-shell.
Suggest just filing a bug so some developer looks at it. Ideally
whatever handles the "unread notifications" place.
FWIW, most GNOME apps just use (IIRC) persistent notifications; that's
in the specification.
Hi Olav,
Thank you for replying.
You're right that under gnome-shell all is OK.
However, actually I don't use gnome-shell. Instead I use Openbox +
some GNOME3-related programs (like gnome-settings-daemon) to bring
some of GNOME3 desktop integration features.
In my case, the effect of unread notifications is the one you can see
in the following screenshot

In this screenshot there are two unread notifications: one from
mail-notification and the other one from radiotray.
For instance, in case of radiotray, when a new song begin, I can see
the related popup if there is already a related unread notification.
Cheers,
