@David
this is certainly not apparant in 0.9.11-0ubuntu1 on my setup. I, like others in this thread, have a single panel at the bottom of the screen but notifications appear top right. With a 24" 1920x1200 setup, I rarely see them.

The focus-follow fix would be an improvement (any news on when that might land?) but a configurable location would still be infinitely preferable. Bug 346095 (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/notify-osd/+bug/346095) shows some of the strength of feeling about this kind of thing. It doesn't appear to be a dupe of this, but probably should be.

Cheers,
Darren.
