when starting guake from a terminal under xfce (either with gnome services started or not), it fails with the following error message : ** (process:6951): WARNING **: Trying to register gtype 'GMountMountFlags' as enum when in fact it is of type 'GFlags' ** (process:6951): WARNING **: Trying to register gtype 'GDriveStartFlags' as enum when in fact it is of type 'GFlags' ** (process:6951): WARNING **: Trying to register gtype 'GSocketMsgFlags' as enum when in fact it is of type 'GFlags' Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/guake/guake.py", line 1353, in <module> if not main(): File "/usr/lib/guake/guake.py", line 1296, in main instance = Guake() File "/usr/lib/guake/guake.py", line 649, in __init__ notification.show() glib.GError: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.Notifications was not provided by any .service files
I'll check this one..

Can't reproduce this on XFCE. Warnings are exactly same, though. (However I find out missing require for gnome-python-gconf.) Do you have python-dbus and python-notify installed? Check also that xfce4-notifyd or notification-daemon is installed.
notification-daemon was installed but not xfce4-notifyd. I installed xfce4-notifyd, it caused notification-daemon to be uninstalled, and now guake works ! Thanks,
