    QDBusMessage msg = QDBusMessage::createMethodCall("org.freedesktop.Notifications",
       "/org/freedesktop/Notifications",
       "org.freedesktop.Notifications",
       "SystemNoteDialog");

    QList<QVariant> args;
    args.append(text);
    args.append(static_cast<quint32>(0));
    args.append("ok");

    msg.setArguments(args);

    QDBusConnection::systemBus().call(msg);
}
