* kerberos4 fix (it got bumped during a kerberos 5 update)
penrose -mono now more interesting
updated -showfps. It should work better now. It stops working when
it jumps from the password window.
mandelbrot -pow and -sin options added. Kind of slow, so not in
fullrandom. Best if used with -binary. No idea if the new options
are correct mathematically.
allows lifefile to be bigger in life and life3d. (This allows
the "-mode life3d -rule B6/S567 -lifefile ../etc/barrierg.3dlife".
(If a glider could escape from the barrier without damaging it, it
would prove that glider guns in 3d life are possible since the
barriers create a local Conway's B3/S23 life.))
converted lyapunov,mandelbrot,swirl,tube to the xscreensaver way of
doing things for writeable modes. Stuff no longer used or never used
taken out with the help of lint.
xmlock and Xlockup (by Thad Phetteplace tdphette@dexter.glaci.com).
Only works on Sun. Will sort of work on Linux for
detecting mouse movement only. See xmlock.c. Default timeout is set
at 0 (off) so this will not cause a problem if it does not work.
Jouk Jansen's patch for Alpha (slightly changed).
wire restarts when static
lyapunov was left out of writeable modes in random.c
spline fix, when in random mode it could core dump.
maze fix thanks to guillem.hernandez@bt.com, for large resolutions as in
a dual headed configured as one 2560x1024 screen.
* Move the sound files to the standard location for xlock sound files.
* On NetBSD, use ossplay instead of audioplay if USE_OSS is defined.
Also split out a xlockmore Makefile.common to be used in a forthcoming
"xlockmore-lite" package.
* crystal and starfish changes to allow graphics to work better in a 64x64
* window.
+ life3d randomized "rotation" of life form. Wireframe made a little less
+ likely in fullrandom.
* life fix, trilife came up too much in fullrandom.
Kerberos prompter code fixed for NULL banner thanks to Ken
Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>
Atlantis texture fixes thanks to Eric Lassauge <lassauge@mail.dotcom.fr>.
Flow tails added. swarm and flow patch for broken Xservers backed out
thanks to Tim Auckland <Tim.Auckland@Procket.com>.
* Ability for xlock converse with PAM added by Tim Reed <treed1@twcny.rr.com>.
Some more fixes for compilation problems by Jon Nelson
<jnelson@securepipe.com>.
* Fix for flow and swarm for broken Xservers thanks to Tim Auckland
* <Tim.Auckland@Procket.com>.
AFS fix for TRU64.
Ability for xlock converse with PAM added by Tim Reed <treed1@twcny.rr.com>.
Fix for random.c when BLANK_ONLY is used.
Restart life when static or blank. Added Thompson's Day and Night and
Bell's High Life. These are alternate life rules. Day and Night
butterfly added as a glider shooter.
Fixed Andreen's hex life can come up in addition to Callahan's.
Added many life forms from Life Lexicon.
Trilife added (also randomly rotated and shooters added).
Better fix for -rule3d and -v from Emmanuel Jeandel
<ejeandel@ens-lyon.fr>. I guess I went a little crazy with security
and made it strncmp instead of strcmp.
xlockgroup patch for allowing all in the xlock group to unlock.
Thanks to Rich Anderson <RANDERSON@northropgrumman.com>.
Syslog fix when gid not in /etc/group.
life3d double buffering (also made wireframe come up a little less often)
dead (blank) or static (period 1) life forms last just 8 generations
Added gliders from http://www.cse.sc.edu/~bays/d4d4d4 3D applet.
I copied a encrypted password to /etc/passwd and it worked fine without
USE_XLOCKRC. Put a warning in configure if /etc/passwd not set up and
and not using USE_XLOCKRC and cygwin.
Clean up of some text errors with BUTTON_LOGOUT and failure count.
Added a Caps Lock check. Don't you hate it when certain software says
"Make sure that the Caps Lock is not accidently on." and the Caps Lock
is not on... I thought computers can know their own state.
added ", Caps Lock on" to invalid string.... needs French/Japanese
translations (also needs German translation but others parts need that
as well.
cleaned up some various variable shadowing in modes.
check_gl_error protection (previously it would error out... not good
for a locker). This could be a major security problem but I can not
reproduce this on my Linux machine. Someone was able to get a "texture"
error by repeatingly pressing the middle button with glplanet up.
text3d acts more like blank if it does not get a TTF file (blanks out
password screen). Fixed configure of DEF_TTFONT if prefix not set.
Andreas Voegele <voegelas@gmx.net> pointed out -nice option was ignored...
hopefully fixed now. Check now for HAVE_SETPRIORITY.
uninistall and clean on Cygwin should now work
More Kerberos support thanks to Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>.
support for the new krb5-config script to determine the correct
options used to compile Kerberos
- If you're using Kerberos, it prints your Kerberos principal in the
username field.
- It uses a callback function in case the library needs to prompt the
user for any additional information (in case your password expires,
for example).
- It makes the writing out of credentials a configure option.
-logoutButton minutes now in man pages.
"configure --with-opengl --without-xpm" should now work for atlantis,
atunnels, fire, and sballs.
Updated xlock/vms_x_fix.h from Jouk Jansen.
Patched losira erase mode, would die on X_FreeColor with
swirl,mandelbrot,lyapunov,tube on PseudoColor and DirectColor.
Patched swirl for DirectColor.
Makefile.in changes by Peter Breitenlohner <peb@mppmu.mpg.de> so that
xlock can be built outside the source tree.
setuid(0) is moved 3 lines up so BAD_PAM option could work with an
/etc/pam.d/xlock configuration file that users do not have access to.
Thanks to Jan Provaznik <xprovazn@informatics.muni.cz>.
petri / 0 fix thanks to Jouk Jansen
Cygwin fix for logout.c thanks to Joseph Davida <jd108@pacbell.net>.
Linted (lots of minor fixes) and removed the voids on free. Lint
pointed out some problems with erase modes and petri.
Failed unlock attempts thanks to <colin@colino.net>.
Need Japanese, Dutch added by Jouk Jansen.
New mode atunnels thanks to Eric Lassauge based on Roman demo.
tunnel0.xpm color names for many grays ("darkgray", "gray2", etc) not
found on SunOS4 which then caused memory leaks thanks to Tom Schmidt.
-size option like fire (since it is real slow on slow machines)
thanks to Tom Schmidt.
Another VMS update and pipe protection from Jouk Jansen.
TODO:
Check multiscreen, allocation check
Trackmouse would not be bad either. -wire does not seem to work.
Some other colour schemes than the greyish default.
pacman patch to get rid of negative unsigned check thanks to Jouk Jansen
Patch for WindowMaker, this permits one to set several attributes to
every window opened; each attribute is associated to the class of
the window. Thanks to Paolo Subiaco <iw3grx@ir3ipa.ampr.org>
Erase compilation warnings removed thanks to Jouk Jansen.
Allow -erasemode to handle more complicated requests like
-erasemode all-circle_wipe, code converted from random.c
swarm unbroken (broken by me from 5.03) thanks to Gunther Nikl
<gni@gecko.de>. Changed some defaults and bee acceleration.
Xlock.ad iconfig changes for sound thanks to James B. Hiller
<jhiller@visi.net>.
petri mode ported from xscreensaver thanks to Jouk Jansen.
-mono (well it may be important if you run out of colours).
+ Also a few more checks, fixes, refresh, etc. Purify fixes by
Tom Schmidt.
polyominoes a longer delay when it found a solution.
+ Updated since beta
Move patch-ac to patch-ab.
New since last BETA2:
+ pacman AI update with trackmouse thanks to Edwin de Jong <mauddib at gmx dot net>
+ C++ fixes, memcpy prefered over bcopy, random start.
New since last BETA:
* Changed delay on several GL modes. They were too fast on my GeForce4.
* bounce drawing errors fixed on my nVidia fixed
ant: fudged the truchet lines a bit more for squares and hexagons.
molecule needs to be protected from pipes by a "glDrawBuffer(GL_BACK);"
thanks to Jouk Jansen.
molecule needs to be protected from pipes by a "glDrawBuffer(GL_BACK);"
thanks to Jouk Jansen.
Patch from Marcelo Vianna <mfvianna at centroin dot com dot br> to get his modes
(cage,moebius,morph3d,rubik) working on NVidia under XFree (NVidia
has a policy to not release code open source and the bug crashes the
system requiring a hard reset). Since skewb is similar that was done
as well by maintainer.
configure changes for 2.53, added option for .ad installation dir,
check for xlockrc and pam.
flag debugged for xpm, do not set byte order for ZPixmap.
Flag ripples now flow left to right and from bottom to top.
Combined XLock-jp.ad into XLock.ad
fontset to use regular (not bold/italic) font/fontset as default,
fix for sound.c using DEF_PLAY, and a fix for customName
thanks to Shingo Yamaguchi <shingo at kip dot iis dot toyama-u dot ac dot jp>.
nice changes were causing problems, set_priority used instead thanks
to Felicia Neff <fn at panix dot com>. (VMS still uses nice).
noof mode added from GLUT demos thanks to Dave Riesz <driesz at cpl dot net>.
USE_XPM changed to HAVE_XPM to be compatible with xscreensaver.
GL updates: lament (light and color are more realistic),
gears (misc updates) and atlantis (first try) for a
thanks to Eric Lassauge ported from xscreensaver (VMS patch for
atlantis from Jouk Jansen).
logout button Array out of bounds fix thanks to Tom Schmidt.
ant,bug,coral,crystal,daisy,demon,decay,dragon,goop,loop,slip,sphere,
tetris,turtle,voters,wator,wire,&xjack fix and squaretate fix for 1x1
screens, thanks to Tom Schmidt for helping out.
juggle updated for xscreensaver... thanks to Tim Auckland
<Tim.Auckland@Procket.com>. I made similar MODE_ changes throughout.
loop update to make flaws closer to the initial loop, without this
it could be quite slow
pacman update/rewrite: level generator added, dots added thanks to
Edwin de Jong <mauddib@gmx.net>
2 erase modes ported from xscreensaver, thanks to Jouk Jansen.
Also added features to make these 2 modes more random.
Fix to set back line width.
standalone maze from Ephraim Yawitz fyawitz@actcom.co.il back into
maze mode for interactive feature.
RedHat fixes (VMS Intrinsic.h placement, rpm & configure updates)
and update to text3d.cc (removed blank, cleanups, and wander animation)
thanks to Eric Lassauge.
sounds can now be randomized using directories thanks to Jouk Jansen.
Also a fix for sel_image wildcard selection for VMS, thanks to
Tom Schmidt for noticing it does not work on UNIX machines.
swarm -size was inconsistent with other tails like worm and julia.
It now uses -cycles thanks to Frank v Waveren <fvw@var.cx>.
fire, lament, sballs fixes on SGI Marcus Herbert <rhoenie@spam-filter.de>
xmlock update for options thanks to Charles Vidal.
MI_IS_DRAWN fixes thanks to Jouk Jansen.
fire update for wandering and sball update, thanks to Eric Lassauge
<lassauge@mail.dotcom.fr>.
text3d fix on a fix when a symbol.ttf or wingding.ttf is used (double free).
Thanks to Tom Schmidt.
apollonian mode thanks to a program by Allan R. Wilks
<allan@research.att.com>. -1,2,2,3 are numbers that represent curvature
(1 / radius) in Euclidean space. (-1,1,1,2 is in spherical space and
-1,1,1,1 is in hyperbolic). Hyperbolic and spherical numbers now added
for all but double bounded. Automatic generation of numbers with -count.
Enforce a upper bound of outer circle at 99, since run time goes up
polynomially by at least n^3.
qix updated with -solid, got the idea from xscreensaver
New "tetris -well", now uses generated images, also cleaned up some
bugs too. Bug fix thanks to Tom Schmidt.
gears added -size but defaults to 0, only -planetary will use up lots of
CPU so added a -planetsize 400 which takes over if -size is 0 (full screen
if both are 0).
but after CHECK_MESA setting. this change makes setting XLOCK_LIGHT
actually DTRT if it is set in /etc/mk.conf (and seems to DTRT if
XLOCK_LIGHT isn't set).
i.e, on a machine without Mesa, by default it will attempt to install
Mesa (et al), unless XLOCK_LIGHT is set where it won't attempt to.
5.01.2
dclock broken in 5.01.1 thanks to for Stephen Montgomery-Smith
pointing it out. (5.01 dclock.c put back).
5.01.1
Missed a patch to config.h.in for Red Hat 7.1... thanks again to
Tim Aukland <tda10@Procket.com>.
+ New "tetris -well", now uses generated images, also cleaned up some
+ bugs too. Bug fix thanks to Tom Schmidt.
New molecule to solve a random SEGV on Sun thanks to Tom Schmidt
<tschmidt@micron.com> (it still crashes on my Sun with OpenGL but
I think its an isolated case). Also cleaned up a few mistakes in the
menus and resource file.
OSF1_ENH_SEC passwd updated to handle passwords with more than eight
characters using dispcrypt, thanks to Steve VanDevender
<stevev@hexadecimal.uoregon.edu>.
molecule fix in sscanf thanks to Jouk Jansen.
scooter updated thanks to Sven Thoennissen <posse@gmx.net>.
+ Got rid of of some -Wall, lint, and C++ warnings (mostly the new 5.01 modes).
+ ecgs g++ warnings removed from solitare and all glx modes, regular modes
+ left for later (casting NULL).
Fixed generated xlock.hlp.
+ gears added -size but defaults to 0, only -planetary will use up lots of
+ CPU so added a -planetsize 400 which takes over if -size is 0 (full screen
+ if both are 0).
Note that the main reason for version 5.0 were various security flaws in
some of the blanker modules.
5.00
+ Just about all modes are now updated. Numerous bug fixes added.
+ Modes modified for safer allocating. Part of fix to security flaw.
+ xlock was broken by using up all the virtual memory.
+ xlockdir may need more work. Multiscreen fixes added.
+ text3d, an unstable C++ mode, needs more work, for the calls to "new".
+ Tom Schmidt & Jouk Jansen caught numerous goofs.
Assorted fixes when doing above like "discrete -mono", and lyapunov &
mandelbrot now sometimes draw from the right side. tube, lyapunov, and
mandelbrot now go through colormap changes forward and backward.
* XFreeColors bug fix in colors.c thanks to Ian Collier
* <Ian.Collier@comlab.ox.ac.uk>.
* Enhanced xlock/util.c for SunOS 4.1.X and others that needed the
* matherr() function defined. Now handles acos() and asin() DOMAIN
* error messages. Thanks to Tom Schmidt <tschmidt@micron.com>.
* SunOS 4.1.3_U1 did not have CLOCKS_PER_SEC defined. Thanks to Tom Schmidt
* <tschmidt@micron.com>.
pentomino mode added by Stephen Montgomery-Smith
<stephen@math.missouri.edu>... it includes a scalable 3d look.
tetris mode now uses and older version of this scalable 3d look as well.
fire, sballs, lament and atlantis updates by Eric Lassauge.
SIA passwording for Tru64 help thanks to Octave Orgeron <octave@sun.com>.
ImageMagick stuff added by Jouk Jansen <joukj@hrem.stm.tudelft.nl>
Setup to go only for VMS.
SunC++ (Forte 6 U1) compatiblity changes.
sball mode... new GL mode, converted by Eric Lassauge (one improvement
I would like to see is to see balls at the corners of the 4 other
platonic solids instead of just the cube).
euler2d new mode option, eulerpower Added optimizations, rotation
of region to maximize screen fill, and new algorithm for solving
diff equation makes it twice as fast thanks to Stephen
Montgomery-Smith <stephen@math.missouri.edu>.
bubble3d, invert release fix
fire mode... new GL mode converted by Eric Lassauge
<lassauge@mail.dotcom.fr>. Also had a few other mods including a
solitare and new l-* icons in pixmaps. Tom Schmidt
<tschmidt@micron.com> added a -size option similar to sproingies.
tree stuff added
lint cleanups
cartoon and raster image removed, bat and bounce modes modified to do
some of what it used to but not all...
e-sound can now be turned off thanks to Mark Davies
life patterns more random
VMS edits thanks to Jouk Jansen <joukj@hrem.stm.tudelft.nl>.
Dpms lib changes for configure for Solaris 8 and XFree86 4.0 (latter not
tested). Also added a new Solaris xpm.
kaleid: new spiral and spots options thanks Robert Adam, II
<raii@comm.net> (spiral looks best like:
xlock -mode kaleid -spiral -alternate -size 20 -count 5 ).
Configure update for Mesa thanks to Tom Schmidt <tschmidt@micron.com>.
closedown patch thanks to Bernd 'Bing' Leibing
<bernd.leibing@rz.uni-ulm.de>.

display name. Thanks to Jeremy Buhler <jbuhler@cs.washington.edu> for
the xlockmore patch.
Environment configuration (--disable-interactive) logic was corrected
(default was ok but you had to --enable-interactive to disable) thanks
to Tom Schmidt <tschmidt@micron.com>.
Man page changes.
* New since last beta
+ Updated since last beta
XLOCK_LIGHT don't use MesaGL or XPM if defined
XLOCK_DEFAULT_MODE default mode if no "-mode" is specified
2. Use audioplay(1) for sound support. I don't think the "-sound" flag
has ever worked, but I might have miss something....

+ euler2d, new mode thanks to Stephen Montgomery-Smith
+ <stephen@math.missouri.edu> also some work was done by Tim Auckland
+ <Tim.Auckland@Procket.com>. See euler2d.tex for theory.
& XSync(dsp, True) should not be used in modes as it is hard to log in
& when input password characters are randomly dropped.
- tetris, you can now play with -trackmouse, row clearing fixed, bonus
- pieces. Added a new look to pieces but must be compiled in with
- -DBM_PLAIN.
- Purify Uninitialized Memory Read found in euler2d, life, and swarm and
- a memory leak in juggle. SunOS fix for xcl and juggle and gameless
- environment configuration (--disable-interactive) thanks to Tom Schmidt
- <tschmidt@micron.com>.
bounce, bat, pacman, and braid should look better for password sized
windows
xcl, new mode control-line combat model race, conversion from xscreensaver
thanks to its author Martin Berentsen <berentsen@sent5.uni-duisburg.de>.
multi-byte character support for languages like Japanese. Fixed for
bomb.c, nose.c, dclock.c, xlock.c, resource.c, iostuff.c,
xmlock.c, and xglock.c. Also added new xmlock/XmLock-jp.ad.
Thanks to Yokota Hiroshi <yokota@netlab.is.tsukuba.ac.jp>.
Maintainer (David Bagley) is a little confused about gettext and
settext stuff.
swarm improvements thanks to Juan Heguiabehere <juanh@wins.uva.nl>.
Now do not fly at 45 degree angles most of the time and longer trails
with -size. Noticed some drawing errors on some Sun displays with
long trails, probably a Sun hardware problem.
euler2d, new mode thanks to Stephen Montgomery-Smith
<stephen@math.missouri.edu> also some work was done by Tim Auckland
<Tim.Auckland@Procket.com>. See euler2d.tex for theory.
added BLANK_ONLY #define if you only want the blank mode.
VMS patch for sound thanks to Jouk Jansen <joukj@hrem.stm.tudelft.nl>.
sco patch from Ronald Joe Record <rr@sco.com>. Did not take the patches
straight so there could be some problems still, but tried to address
the issues. (etc/play.sh, spline.cc sqr, t3d.c time inc, and sysv5
build issues).
configure should now find Mesa as opengl. Worked before
for me... but may work for others now too.
Minor warnings removed various files.
loop.c now loops can go clockwise too. The program decides which set of
rules to use. (Is handedness a requirement for life? (DNA for example
has right-handed helices.)) Added some debugging for building rules
easier, hexagonal life more fleshed out so RAND_RULES will work until
about generation 540.
ESound updates by Eric Lassauge <lassauge@mail.dotcom.fr>.
xcl, new mode control-line combat model race, conversion from xscreensaver
thanks to its author Martin Berentsen <berentsen@sent5.uni-duisburg.de>.
juggle.c: fix bug which caused crashes on some machines, less flashy arms,
real-time, -pattern random (a true pattern generator), figure moved down
and scaled, bouncing, more random, one ball juggling should not come
up, and Sun CC 5.0 errors/warnings removed thanks to Tim Auckland
<tda10@geocities.com>.
HP problems identified for life.c and shape.c, no code changes since it
seems to be a strange bug in the HP cc compiler when using both -O and
-g flags (default). HP CC warnings removed in solitare.cc, xlock.c,
resource.c, dclock.c, decay.c, goop.c, ico.c, juggle.c, starfish.c,
t3d.c, tetris.c, erase*.*. Updated configure and README for compiling
and linking through HP's cc. Still some open problems.
Some arbitrary sized arrays removed in xlock.c, resource.c, and mode.c,
do not believe them to be security problems.
HP_PASSWDETC - due to possible security problems this will no longer
compile by default, pointed out by Theo de Raadt
<deraadt@cvs.openbsd.org>.
Sun CC 5.0 warnings changes cover all modes with options.
skewb mode added as an unstable GL mode. Its in development. Not much
yet... I just have the corners drawn so far and no real movement yet.
Its like a Rubik's Cube but with diagonal cuts that cut through the
the center of the cube on a skewed angle.
mult-byte character support for languages like Japanese. Fixed for
bomb.c, nose.c, iostuff.c, xmlock.c, and xglock.c. Also added new
xmlock/XmLock-jp.ad. Thanks to Yokota Hiroshi
<yokota@netlab.is.tsukuba.ac.jp>.
Buffer overrun security fix does not allow root access directly but the
encrypted password file may be found in memory. This vulnerability was
discovered by Brock Tellier with additional research by Anthony Osborne
at the COVERT Labs of PGP Security, Inc. Now allocate memory instead
of an arbitrary limit on mode name length.
run mode added, its a hack but it sort of works. :)
Also changed resource.c to make a special case for it.
would be nice if password window worked too...
Will probably crash and burn on multiscreens, random mode, etc.
run like:
xlock -mode run -geometrystring geometry -runprogram xclock
xlock -mode run -geometrystring g -runprogram xlogo
xlock -mode run -geometrystring none -runprogram xfishtank
(May be having a little problem with the none option...)
_NOT_ a good idea to recursively run xlock
Not fond of the name of the mode or its option names... so if you
have better names in mind ... tell me.
Moved to unstable (due to VMS and -debug problems).
ico.c most flashing removed. FullRandom added and now rotates more
randomly, rotates in the proper direction (looking at it from the top,
I guess its wrong if you think it should be on a glass table and the
view is underneath...) and changes when it hits the end of the screen.
and changes when it hits the end of the screen. Linewidth and points
added as well.
rubik.c update for stickers and cube roundness variables now set in macro,
considering creating a new skewb mode (its a like a rubik's cube but
with diagonal cuts).
XFree86 4.0 fixes for DPMS and XCloseDisplay thanks to Jeremy Buhler
<jbuhler@cs.washington.edu>. Call to XCloseDisplay was causing
problems, removing it should not, right? More fixes for DPMS, this time
for NetBSD. Thanks to <hubert.feyrer@rz.uni-regensburg.de>
solitare.cc Solaris CC warnings removed and fixed shapes when in
password window.
xalock removed from distribution
