Thats annoying, and "System notifications" doesn't seem to have anything 
specific to Kdisk free either. There is a line there that says. 
"A critical message is being shown" , and the display a messagebox icon isn't 
on that line. I might try putting it on that line, but it's going to take a 
while to see if it works, unless you deliberately redline the drive.
