about the same request but for kdm can be found in bug #51039. *** Bug 120176 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** do plasma widgets on the screen saver provide an adequate solution? no, because it's part of the systray, and you can't put the systray on your screensaver. :P maybe a non-systray version could be written, I don't know how much work it would be. I guess it's a shame this guy isn't experiencing the bug where notifications appear over hte screensaver. ;) i guess this should be a plasmoid which would look a bit like an rss feeder or something. the knotify configuration would need to have an additional mode dimension: normal (usual defaults) and locked (defaults all off), probably with a checkbox for each event to affect all modes at once. i leave the details of the diversion of event delivery to the more interested parties. :) i suppose this should be somehow reassigned to plasma. One of the tasks of the screen locker is to completely blank the session. This implies that nothing from the running session should be shown. Thus we cannot show notifications as that runs against that security aim. |
