Re: [orca-list] how to compile notify-osd in ubuntu 11.10

[Dave Hunt <ka1cey gmail com>]

Hello Jose!

Thanks for your instructions; very clear.  I followed them, to the 
letter, and do not have notifications.  Instead of orca saying 
"notify-osd", it's silent, when a notification comes.  I suppose, if 
it's not going to say anything useful, silence is better.

When I built the suggested notify-osd, I was running gnome-fallback.  I 
have, since, switched to unity-2d, and still have no notifications. 
Maybe I need to pull orca  again?  I pulled about a week ago.


Thanks,


Dave
