[Bug 599037] Re: background graphical flashing (corruption) when compiz is disabled

[Mirco Müller]

The best way to fix this, is to fall back to metacity (+compositor) if
compiz fails. You can do that by doing:

gconftool-2 -s /apps/metacity/general/compositing_manager -t bool true
metacity --replace &
        
notify-osd is designed for composited environments, because several of its key-interaction features (click-through, proximity-fade, styling) require working desktop-composition. There was some effort spent in making notify-osd also work ok in non-composited environments. But its looks under non-composited desktops has never been and will never be a focus of development.
