Ubuntu 12.04 + Customize Notify-OSD

If you're not happy with the default notifications in Ubuntu 12.04, you can still change them pretty much to your liking. In this video I walk through the steps for installing two pacakges to and make them work with 12.04. What follows are the notes and links as per video: Links to packages (Direct) -- Notify-OSD 32-bit: https://launchpad.net/~leolik/+archive/leolik/+files/notify-osd_0.9.32-0ubuntu3-leolik%7Eppa1_i386.deb 64-bit: https://launchpad.net/~leolik/+archive/leolik/+files/notify-osd_0.9.32-0ubuntu3-leolik%7Eppa1_amd64.deb package commands for Notify-OSD: 32-bit: sudo dpkg -i -B notify-osd_0.9.32-0ubuntu3-leolik~ppa1_i386.deb 64-bit: sudo dpkg -i -B notify-osd_0.9.32-0ubuntu3-leolik~ppa1_amd64.deb -- NOTIFY-OSD CONFIGURATION 32-bit: https://launchpad.net/~nilarimogard/+archive/webupd8/+files/notifyosdconfig_0.1-6%7Enatty1_i386.deb 64-bit: https://launchpad.net/~nilarimogard/+archive/webupd8/+files/notifyosdconfig_0.1-6%7Enatty1_amd64.deb Refrence Links: https://launchpad.net/~leolik/+archive/leolik/?field.series_filter=natty https://launchpad.net/~nilarimogard/+archive/webupd8/+packages?field.name_filter=notify&field.status_filter=published& field.series_filter=natty To test, type in a terminal: notify-send test To change the position of the notifcations, type (or copy&paste) in a terminal: gsettings set com.canonical.notify-osd gravity -- followed by a number 1-6 (see below) 1 - top-right corner 2 - middle-right 3 - bottom-right corner 4 - bottom-left corner 5 - middle-left 6 - top-left corner
