I recently upgraded to Firefox 4. There is extension in synaptic – xul-notify that can be used in Firefox 3.x to get native notifications through notify-osd but it is not working with Firefox 4. Is there a similar separate extension for Firefox 4 or some other workaround to get native notifications?

xul-ext-notify looks like it may have come to an end. Here is the git-hub page for the extension: https://github.com/linkinpark342/firefoxnotify
It hasn't been updated since 2009. Hopefully someone takes up the challenge to write another extension or update this one.
