Bug Description

Binary package hint: unity-2d

I'm using Unity 2D dailies, fully up to date on 02/Apr/2011 and the system is using an older notification display option. Please can we use Notify-OSD in Unity 2D as well as Unity GL? Thanks.

Could this be stuck on upgrades? I saw the update, re-logged-in, and
still got old-skool notifications.

hum, it shouldn't be stuck on upgrade. Can you paste there:
$cat /usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.freedesktop.Notifications.service
$ env | grep GDMSESSION
$ ps aux | grep notif
