Hi Simon

I tried putting notification windows via libnotify where they seemed useful :
For incoming calls, you can chose to answer or decline the call and, on Ubuntu, 
it opens a (more intrusive) pop-up window instead of a simple notification 
bubble.
For other notifications (call ending or transferred, errors, resuming, paused 
by remote), it should work as intended.

I also made a kind of "beep" signal for incoming calls when already in call.
It may need some tweaking, and perhaps doesn't really need two tones. 

Cheers

Valentin

Hi Valentin,

I think it could be smart to have notification windows above the status 
icon, when for example an incoming call is arriving.
The current behavior when an incoming call is to show up the linphone 
window, but this grabs focus and keyboard input, which is annoying.
We could imagine to have to display instead a smart nofication bubble in 
the notication area, saying that "someone is calling", and with two 
buttons to decide to accept or decline the call.

 From what I understand gnome's libnotify library can be used for that.

Another interesting feature would be that when linphone receives an 
incoming call while already in call, it plays some small beeps to signal 
the new call to the user.
The current behavior is just to display the new call next to the current 
one in the tab of calls, but the user might not see it. The playing of 
the tones should be done by using the MSDtmfGen object of the 
AudioStream that belongs to the active call.

Best regards,

Simon
