Unable To Customize Notification Pop-Ups

[brenttauro]

Hi. I installed Xubuntu on my old HP Pavilion ze4900 a while ago. I then installed the Ubuntu and Ubuntu 2D sessions and uninstalled the Xubuntu session. So I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.

Anyway, I don't like the fact that the notification pop-ups which I loved, look like boring solid grey bubbles with a white outline and close button - barely visible (see attached screenshot). The pop-ups close on click. I've already tried customizing it with a patched version of NotifyOSD as mentioned here:

http://www.webupd8.org/2012/06/closa...notifyosd.html

...but to no avail. As a matter of fact, it doesn't affect the pop-ups at all!

How can I get the original Ubuntu/Unity notification pop-ups with bubble fade outs to work?

notify-osd was replaced by Xfce's own notifying system, xfce4-notifyd. Try uninstalling xfce4-notifyd completely.

That was it. Fixed the problem for me.
