Thanx Alex...that works..
it would be better if i could have something in my panel..i have
selected the stay on top option...so it stays above other windows i
cannot have it in the panel..there used to be some kind of notifier in
fedora3 that stayed in the panel..i really liked that..anyway..this
solves my problem..
this might be an option, too
