Ok, this appears to be two problems, neither of which I can control.

1) The timeout for the display of the MNotification event is controlled
by the MNotificationManager or MNotificationView, not by the sender
(dialer).  I'm not aware of any way for me to control that
unfortunately.

You can test if this is the default behavior by using the
mnotificationtool utility (installed with the libmeegotouch-devel
package).  Here is an example invocation to test with:

mnotificationtool -a add -i x-nokia.call -c 1 "Test Event" \
"Summary text" "Body text" icon-m-telephony-call-missed

2) The blank screen after the notification is most likely a compositor
issue, or, some loss of frames in the notification removal animation.
I've seen this lots on the i945 Gfx systems (netbooks) and it's a
compositor issue there.  Not sure if it can be blammed on that on the
N900 though, since it's different Gfx device.  I *do* see lots of
animation frame loss on the N900's and Aava's, but I'm not an expert on
performance so I won't even pretend to guess as to the cause.

Ok, I understand what you are describing now.  I don't see this on my
dev system, but it's on a different sized system.

Can you open a bug on this one, specifying it is an N900 device, what
build (please be sure it is reproducible on one of the official builds
that can be found on http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/builds/ ...).

Please attach the video, the file /etc/meegotouch/devices.conf, and the
output of the following command:

$ gconftool-2 -R /meegotouch/theme

Thanks for the reports,

Shane...
