Description A S Alam 2007-04-12 11:35:08 UTC
Please describe the problem:
during using vncviewer on machine B (machine A has vncserver running), when
Clicked on Laptop Battery, it shows LAPTOP Battery Information Window on Machine
A (parent machie). On that Machine A I was using KDE desktop, so no
Gnome-power-Manager.

Steps to reproduce:
1. run vncserver on Machine
2. get VNC at other machine with Gnome-power-manager
3. Right-Click on Notification area ICON and select LAPTOP Battery

Actual results:
'Laptop Battery'  Message Box shown on Machine A (where vncserver running)

Expected results:
it should be on same machine where VNC viewer is using

Does this happen every time?
during  VNC, everytime

Other information:
gnome-power-manager-2.18.1-2.fc7
vnc-4.1.2-16.fc7

Are you sure the window comes from the KDE desktop and is not just over the top of the vnc window? What happens if you resize the vnc window - does the bubble move?

I don't think this is a g-p-m bug, as it's using the standard libnotify library.
Comment 2 A S Alam 2007-04-12 12:55:03 UTC
Screenhsot has only KDE desktop (LEFT and RIGHT side, nothing on TOP) and vncviewer was
running on different machine with GNOME desktop
If I resize VNC window, then No effect on box

oh, sorry forgot to attach, it was with RH bug
Comment 6 Richard Hughes 2007-05-28 15:41:06 UTC
If you do "notify-send hello" does the image also appear?
Comment 7 A S Alam 2007-05-29 10:46:30 UTC
yes, both notify-sendto and Notification box appear on parent machine.

something can be interesting with RH bug 240940, if we consider following bug, where there is no Notification on Parent machine
(while using Gnome-power-manager either in Gnome or KDE, but with VNC I am able to 
see Notification on Parent machine in KDE desktop)

Comment 8 Richard Hughes 2007-06-14 19:29:51 UTC
This isn't a gnome-power-manager bug. You probably need to work out why the libnotify message is painted on the top-level window - although this is probably by design.
