Comment 21 for bug 351850

Ok, Kamus, there we are with $ apt-cache policy notify-osd
notify-osd:
  Installed: 0.9.13-0ubuntu0~1

  Version table:

But there is still no on screen notification at all for volume, brightness or pidgin. There are some little flags telling me things about the network manager or so, but that's it.
To make sure I'm well understood: There is no gnome here, not even installed, I'm running Xubuntu, i.e. Xfce, and I've never seen the on screen messages I used to get from gnome on the same computer.
