The notification bubble is misplaced and cut off. See attached screen capture. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-power-manager-2.13.93-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Login 2. Observer 3. Actual Results: Notification bubble placed to the far top left of the non-panel area. So far left, it is somewhat cut off at the edge of the screen. Expected Results: The notification should not be displayed until the panels items are complete and it can be associated with it's applet. Additional info:

Can you attach a g-p-m verbose trace to this bug please, of when the icon is not where it should be. Many thanks.

Thanks, that's exactly what I neede to see. It's really chicken and egg with that bit of code, we can't display the tray icon until we know the device list, and we can't display the notification until we have shown the tray. What about if the notification was just in the bottom left (in this instance) as if the notification wasn't told where to point (the system default). Is that any good?
This is not necessarily a login issue - that's just where I normally see it. To get the g-p-m verbose output, I just pulled the plug on the mouse and plugged it back in (after restarting g-p-m in verbose mode). My gnome-session has been going quite a while. Are you saying there is a race condition between the notification and the tray icon? If so, why can't the notification be delayed until after the tray icon has been displayed?
