Quick Fix: Disable Notification Icons in guake-properties.

Changed by quenenni

I had the same problem (I disabled "Notification Icons" option in guake properties and now it works fine).

OS: Debian Wheezy 64 bit Gnome Shell: 3.4.2-7 Guake: v0.4.3

What is really strange is that if I disable guake in the "Startup applications" and create a new entry with exactly the same parameters, it works.

Apparently the notification dependency wasn't present. Installing pynotify should fix this.

In addition, the commit 855be10 should also improve this.

Please try it :)

sudo apt-get install mate-notification-daemon

via Linux Mint Forums • View topic - guake terminal wont start

My Debian+Mate was with the same problem.
Tnx @chusiang it works fine now.
