Good afternoon. I put a notification on the cron, but it does not work when the application is running in full screen mode, for example, watching a video on YouTube. Does anyone know how to fix? Scheduler code:

DISPLAY=:0.0
XAUTHORITY=$HOME/.Xauthority
# m h dom mon dow command
0,30 * * * 1,2,3,4,5 notify-send -t 600000 "Notification"

No, the person was not answered, but he asked for alternatives.
You can do sudo reboot instead of notify-send, then you will immediately notice that it wanted to tell you something.
