887748 - Firefox 22 : no more plasma notifications on kde 4.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 858919

(Firefox :: Untriaged, defect)

Description

[kokoko3k]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:22.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/22.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20130626010747

Steps to reproduce:

Installed firefox 22, completed a download.


Actual results:

I saw an ugly notifications on the wrong screen (i'm dual head) saying me that the download was completed


Expected results:

in a linux/kde environment, every notifications was displayed by a plasma widget until (including) firefox 21.

Now not only this does not happen anymore, but the ugly notification box appears even on the wrong "head" on a multihead setup (nvidia twinview)

Could you use the tool mozregression to find a possible regression range as you're able to reproduce the issue.
See http://harthur.github.io/mozregression/ for details.

FF22 nightlies started in Feb. 2013 (mozregression --good=2013-02-01).

Sure, i'd like to do it, but pip throws me an error:

here pip.log:

If you could point me to a list of packages to download and install, i could bisect manually.

This is by design, I believe. It's caused by bug 782211, which replaced native notifications with ugly XUL notifications. :(

See also bug 858919 and bug 853104.

The notification appearing on the wrong screen sounds like a valid bug though.

Damn, you are 99.999% right, see comment 13:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=782211#c13

Is there something we could do?

(oh, still, the notification appears on the wrong screen to me)

File a new bug if the new notifications are displayed on the wrong display.
