Notification Issues

No Desktop Notifications

Problem

Timer works but no notifications appear.

Solution

1. Check notification daemon:

   # For mako (Wayland)
   ps aux | grep mako
   
   # For dunst (X11)
   ps aux | grep dunst
   
   # Test notifications
   notify-send "Test" "Notification test"
   

2. Check tomat notification config:

   [notification]
   enabled = true  # Must be true
   

3. Try different icon modes:

   [notification]
   icon = "theme"  # Try system theme icon
   

Icon Not Showing in Notifications

Problem

Notifications appear but without icons.

Solution

Different solutions for different notification daemons:

1. Mako: Use auto mode (default)

   [notification]
   icon = "auto"  # Uses cached embedded icon
   

2. Dunst: Try theme mode

   [notification]
   icon = "theme"  # Uses system "timer" icon
   

3. Custom icon:

   [notification]
   icon = "/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/timer.png"
   

4. Check icon cache location:

   ls -la $XDG_CACHE_HOME/tomat/icon.png
   # Should exist if using "auto" mode
