Hi James,
The upgrade.php script is called any time the version number in he main block file differs from the one in the database. I've removed the check for he old version to be lower than a particular number around the config code, so it will run every time. The new function after_install() in block_ajax_marking.php does the job on first install and does result in code duplication. I just didnt have time to make it any more elegant Similarly, the code in javascript.js etc is for something else (can't remember what) and got comitted accidentally because I was in a rush.
I'll tidy it up over the weekend. At least it works for now 
If this is a clean install you are likely experiencing the same problem I did. It did not create the config entries so it does not know which activities to check for work.
After you copy the directory to block and run notification it creates the block_ajax_marking table. However, it does not run the second half of the update script (detailed in db/upgrade.php) to populate the config entry.
After installing I had to manually increment the version number to make it run the upgrade script and re-detect the modules to add an entry to config_plugin table. After this it worked fine.
To increment the version just open block_ajax_marking.php and change $this->version = 2009051802;
Then go to the notification page and it will create the config entries.
You can check if this is the problem by enabling Debug mode and Display Debug. If you then go to a screen with the plugin it gives a warning about the foreach statement having an invalid argument (i.e. an empty array)
