I can't get notifications to show up with notify-send in Fedora 14 with xfce4.
However, they are shown when the battery is low. Any ideas why they won't show up?

You need to install xfce4-notifyd :
Libnotify is an implementation of the Desktop Notifications Specification which provides support for GTK+ and Qt applications and is desktop independent: it is already used by many open source apps like Evolution and Pidgin. Libnotify can be installed with the libnotify package.
In order to use libnotify, you have to install a notification server.

Check https://docs.xfce.org/apps/notifyd/start
Configuration command: xfce4-notifyd-config

1That's some necromancy right there. I can't verify it right now. Did you test it? – Ivan – 2018-03-08T23:22:44.627
