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

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

** Description changed:

  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.
  
  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
+ This is a high-importance bug in Notify OSD: as described 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.
+ "Any other actions should be supplied as buttons for the alert", and "If
+ body is supplied, the system should sanitize it, concatenate it with the
+ summary with a blank line between them, and use the combination as the
+ text of the alert".
  
  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.)
