Subject: Re: [gnome-flashback] [ notification-daemon ] blacklist or disable for certain applications?

OK. Well ... the only solution that I can find is to comment-out the 'Exec' line in the xdg autostart file like this:

$ cat /etc/xdg/autostart/notification-daemon-autostart.desktop

[Desktop Entry]

Name=Notification Daemon

Comment=Display notifications

#Exec=/usr/lib/notification-daemon/notification-daemon

Terminal=false

Type=Application

>

NoDisplay=true

X-Ubuntu-Gettext-Domain=notification-daemon

This disables _all_ notifications(even the ones that are infrequent or desirable).

If anyone has another idea, please share.

Thanks for your work on Gnome-Flashback!

Hello,

I've recently installed Gnome-Flashback(gnome-flashback (3.17.2-2ubuntu1)) and I really like it.

However, I need to blacklist/disable notifications for:  sbackup (= 0.11.6-0ubuntu1)

sbackup has a status indicator which is sufficient for monitoring. Since I have a backup run 'every hour', the notification pop-ups can be annoying and the subsequent notices fill-up the notification 'envelope' in the systray.

Is it possible to blacklist/disable notifications for individual applications?

Thank you for your work,

Chris Rainey

I think the answer at the moment is no.

GNOME provides a way to tweak settings for individual applications
(via org.gnome.desktop.notifications.application gsettings schema),
but notification-daemon doesn't support that at the moment (and
neither does notify-osd).
