Unable to start notification daemon

kenwong · 2012-12-03 12:44:25

Got this error message occasionally when booted to the desktop.

Any help would be appreciated.

What other notification daemons do you have in your autostart? Do you use Xfce? If yes, look in Xfce Settings Manager -> Sessions.

Thanks Ivan. I'm using Openbox.

Then you should look in your autostart, it should be in ~/.config/autostart. But I am not an Openbox user.

Hello, here is my autostart file:

What says:

apt-cache policy xfce4-notifyd

kenwong · 2012-12-04 16:24:32

It says:

Googled a bit, you are not the only one reporting this. But I have no idea what is xndaemon and if you should try to stop this one, for what it is needed?

sudo /etc/init.d/xn-daemon stop
# or
sudo service xn-daemon stop

then log out from Openbox and back again. Does this work?

I don't know this xndaemon either. I used the image released in September to install this #!

The problem occurs occasionally only. I also has another intermittent problem with audio. I will open another post for this.
