to address issues with NetBSD-6(and earlier)'s fontconfig not being
new enough for pango.
While doing that, also bump freetype2 dependency to current pkgsrc
version.
Suggested by tron in PR 47882
libXext/buildlink3.mk, now that it is included there.
Leave the places where its API version is set or variables from it
are used directly (about 3 packages).
New in the 0.9.13 x11vnc release:
Improved support for non-X11 touchscreen devices (e.g. handheld or
cell phone) via Linux uinput input injection. Additional
tuning parameters are added. TSLIB touchscreen calibration
is supported. Tested on Qtmoko Neo Freerunner.
A tool, misc/uinput.pl, is provided to diagnose uinput
behavior on new devices.
The env. vars. X11VNC_UINPUT_BUS and X11VNC_UINPUT_VERSION
are available if leaving them unset does not work.
The Linux uinput non-X11 input injection can now be bypassed:
events can be directly written to the /dev/input/event
devices specified by the user (direct_abs=..., etc.)
A -pipeinput input injection helper script,
misc/qt_tslib_inject.pl is provided as a tweakable
non-builtin direct input injection method.
The list of new uinput parameters for the above two features is:
pressure, tslib_cal, touch_always, dragskip, btn_touch;
direct_rel, direct_abs, direct_btn, direct_key.
The included SSL enabled Java VNC Viewers now handle Mouse
Wheel events.
miscellaneous new features and changes:
In -reflect mode, the libvncclient connection can now have
the pixel format modified via the environment
variables X11VNC_REFLECT_bitsPerSample,
X11VNC_REFLECT_samplesPerPixel, and
X11VNC_REFLECT_bytesPerPixel
In -create mode the following environment variables are added
to fine tune the behavior: FIND_DISPLAY_NO_LSOF:
do not use lsof(1) to try to determine the Linux VT,
FIND_DISPLAY_NO_VT_FIND: do not try to determine the
Linux VT at all, X11VNC_CREATE_LC_ALL_C_OK: do not bother
undoing the setting LC_ALL=C that the create_display
script sets. The performance of the -create script
has been improved for large installations (100's of
user sessions on one machine.)
In -unixpw mode, one can now Tab from login: to Password.
An environment variable, X11VNC_SB_FACTOR, allows one to scale
the -sb screenblank sleep time from the default 2 secs.
In -rawfb mode, a bug is fixed in setting the number of bits
per pixel.
Documented that -grabkbd is no longer working with some/most
window managers (it can prevent resizing and menu posting.)
The macosx deprecated interface GetMainDevice() call is removed.
Compile with -DX11VNC_MACOSX_USE_GETMAINDEVICE if needed
for an old macosx version...
Miscellaneous code cleanup.
New in the 0.9.12 x11vnc release:
One can now specify the maximum number of displays
that can be created in -create mode via the
env. var. X11VNC_CREATE_MAX_DISPLAYS
The X11VNC_NO_LIMIT_SHM env. var. is added to skip any
automatic shared memory reduction.
The kdm display manager is now detected when trying not to get
killed by the display manager.
miscellaneous new features and changes:
A compile error is fixed when using --with-system-libvncserver
pointing to LibVNCServer 0.9.7.
-nevershared -forever usage mode is documented.
Old SuSE broken thread local storage is documented.
x11vnc exit cases are documented.
A compile bug from forced use of Xdefs.h is worked around.
New in the 0.9.11 x11vnc release:
The source tree is synchronized with the most recent libvncclient
(this only affects -reflect mode.) The build is fixed
for incompatibilities when using an external LibVNCServer
(e.g. ./configure --with-system-libvncserver...)
The SSL enabled Java VNC Viewer Makefile has been modified so
that the jar files that are built are compatible back
to Java 1.4.
In -reflect mode cursor position updates are now handled
correctly.
In -create/-unixpw mode, the env. var. FD_USERPREFS may be set
to a filename in the user's home directory that includes
default username:options values (so the options do not
need to be typed every time at the login prompt.)
miscellaneous new features and changes:
An option -always_inject is provided: Even if there is no
displacement (dx = dy = 0) for a VNC mouse event force
the pointer to the indicated x,y position anyway.
New java viewer debugging and workaround applet parameters:
debugKeyboard mapF5_to_atsign forbid_Ctrl_Alt
You can set X11VNC_AVAHI_NAME, X11VNC_AVAHI_HOST, and/or
X11VNC_AVAHI_PORT environment variables to override the
default values. For example: -env X11VNC_AVAHI_NAME=wally
When opening the X11 display extra XAUTHLOCALHOSTNAME settings
are attempted.
New in the 0.9.10 x11vnc release:
IPv6 is now supported for all usage modes: forward and reverse
connections, SSL and unencrypted, etc.
The included SSL enabled Java VNC viewer applet now supports
Chained SSL Certificates (x11vnc -ssl always has.)
The applet autodects x11vnc and set GET=1 for faster
connecting via HTTPS.
A demo CGI script 'desktop.cgi' shows how to create an
SSL encrypted, multi-user x11vnc web login desktop
service. The user logs into a secure web site and gets
his/her own virtual desktop and his browser accesses it
with the SSL Java VNC Viewer applet.
A serverCert Java Viewer applet parameter is provided.
Use an authenticated HTTPS browser connection to set
this parameter (the user could set it locally too.)
The onetimekey tool has -certonly option for this scheme.
The Xdummy script (use Xorg 'dummy' driver instead of Xvfb)
no longer requires being run as root.
miscellaneous new features and changes:
In the Java viewer applet, debugCerts and debugKeyboard parameters
are provided. The debugging output of the applet is more
readable. Some corner-case bugs (e.g. socket exceptions)
are now handled gracefully. Parameters forbid_Ctrl_Alt
and mapF5_to_atsign are added.
The amount of time to wait for HTTPS applet downloads to finish
can be set in env. var. X11VNC_HTTPS_DOWNLOAD_WAIT_TIME.
The -xkb mode is automatically enabled if there are more than
4 keysyms per key.
-coe is now an alias for -connect_or_exit.
The -input_eagerly option enables this LibVNCServer feature
(it is like -allinput.)
The "%" unix password verification tricks for the -unixpw
option are now documented. They also run a command
in UNIXPW_CMD.
In -create (-svc, etc.) modes, a warning is printed out if Xvfb
cannot be found. Xvfb '+kb' option is checked for.
The -env CREATE_DISPLAY_OUTPUT=/tmp/mydebug.txt debugging
option is documented. Try to preserve user's PATH
if possible.
In XDMCP connection mode, a test for GDM listening only
on IPv6 (::1) is performed. The interface can also be
specified via FD_XDMCP_IF.
The example scripts connect_switch, ultravnc_repeater.pl, inet6to4
have settings to let them run reliably for long times
as daemons. They also support IPv6.
IPv6 notes: for some very esoteric cases (e.g. -chatwindow)
IPv4 localhost may be required for local IPC. A demo
transition tool 'inet6to4' is also included (can be
used for other apps.) x11vnc options related to IPv6:
-listen6, -6, -no6, -noipv4, -noipv6, and -connect,
-proxy.
Use STUNNEL_LISTEN in -stunnel mode to have it listen on a
particular interface. Also STUNNEL_PROG.
New remote control query options: pointer_x, pointer_y,
pointer_same, pointer_root, and pointer_mask. A demo
script using them misc/panner.pl is provided.
Remote control change of -clip option will not create new
framebuffer if the size has not changed (for panner.pl)
The X11VNC_DISABLE_SSL_CLIENT_MODE env. var. can be set to
disable SSL client role in reverse connections. This
means the VNC viewer side must be in SSL client role.
UltraVNC repeater operation can benefit from this.
The SSL_INIT_TIMEOUT is increased to 1 hour if 'repeater'
is detected in a reverse connect string.
The X property X11VNC_TRAP_XRANDR can be set on a desktop to
force x11vnc to use the -xrandr screen size change
trapping code.
The -sslScripts option prints out the SSL certificate management
scripts.
Suggest '-auth guess' and '-findauth' if X connection fails.
The TightVNC sercurity type (TightVNC features enabler) now
works for RFB version 3.8.
RECORD scroll detection is now working with the new gtk/gdk scroll
mechanism. Set X11VNC_SCROLL_MUST_EQUAL to disable.
