Version: 1.5.93 (using KDE KDE 3.1.93) Installed from: Gentoo Packages Compiler: gcc 3.3.2 OS: Linux The non-intrusive new mail notification that is supposed to appear just above the task bar actually shows vertically about 1/3 from the top of the display. The horiztonal location seems to be correct however. This was working fine with the Kmail shipped with KDE 3.1.4.
Here it actually is always shown right of the main window (I use a vertical taskbar) and therefore invisible because my main window is on the right side of the desktop.
Oops, I forgot some important information. I'm using a horizontal panel at the bottom of the screen that contains the task bar. I also have a child panel at the top center which has output from ksysguard.
Subject: kdepim/kmail CVS commit by kloecker: Fix placement of passive popup for 'New mail arrived' event. It was placed next to KMail's main window (on the right and off the screen because my main window is on the right border of the desktop). Using 0 puts it again next to the KMail entry in the taskbar.
