[Bug 340773] Re: kerneloops notifications crippled, fails to file

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: notify-osd
- 
  The notification window from kerneloops is crippled by notify-osd, which
  means kernel crashes are neither being reported upstream nor being
- passed to apport for LP filing.  Attaching the window when using
- notification-daemon, and the window when using notify-osd...
+ passed to apport for LP filing.
+ 
+ The functions that should be available: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/23735662/kerneloops-notify-good.jpg
+ What actually happens: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/23735670/kerneloops-notify-bad.jpg
+ 
+ This is a high-importance bug in Notify OSD: as shown in
+ <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NotifyOSD#org.freedesktop.Notifications.Notify>,
+ fallback alert boxes should be showing all the actions that were
+ supplied to the notification, not just two of them.
+ 
+ It is also something that should be fixed in kerneloops: As mentioned in
+ <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NotifyOSD#kerneloops>, kerneloops should be
+ using a custom alert box anyway rather than a notification. (This would
+ improve on the fallback alert in that it would no longer have an "OK"
+ button that did nothing exactly like the "Cancel" button.)
