-- Attempt to handle early errors when using the manual screen mode.
--
-- Creating a notification popup before the screens are added won't work. To
-- work around this, the code below initializes some screens. One potential
-- problem is that it could emit enough signal to cause even more errors and
-- lose the original error.
--
-- For example, the following error can be displayed using this fallback:
--
--    screen.connect_signal("scanned", function() foobar() end)
--
