Version: (using KDE 4.4.2) OS: Linux Installed from: Archlinux Packages If you use the wall program to write a message, you will be notified that there is a broadcast message, but the notification will not display the message, if you use "shutdown -k now 'message'", the message is displayed. I'm pretty sure that in the past you would get the message text from wall (although, in the past I may have just used shutdown or shutdown -k). If this is not a bug, please change it to a feature request, thank you.
Check with Systemsettings > Advanced > Service Manager if the "Write Daemon" is activated. The notification is displayed here.
Hi, I can't find "kwrited" in the service manager, but running "ps aux" shows me that /usr/bin/kwrited is running. Furthermore if I use "write" I can write myself messages, it's just when using wall that I get a notification about the broadcast message, but there's no text.
