New in 2.1.0: 2004-11-30:
- Documentation updates
- removed obseleted Xlib target
- added new GGIFLAG_TIDYBUF flag. It is intended for applications
using directbuffer and having their own dirty-region
management. Currently only supported by the X-target.
- KGI target improvements
- added Matrox Gx00 accelerator sublib
- added devfs support
- added multiple frame support
- merged improvements from the FreeBSD ports tree
- fbdev gammamap support
- added the -fullscreen option to the X-target
- added the -physz option to the ipc-target
- Major DirectX target improvements
- added -noinput and -physz options by Christoph Egger. Tested by Albert Graef.
- fix cursor stuff, added -keepcursor and -nocursor options (patch from Albert Graef)
- disable maximize button on GGI-on-DX window (patch from Albert Graef)
- remove stuff in WindowProc made obselete by the above two items (patch from Albert Graef)
- move the globals in ddinit.c into private data structure (patch from Albert Graef)
- merge the two targets into one (directxnt has been renamed to directx and is now the *one* directx target)
(patch from Albert Graf)
- fix a couple of bugs and race conditions (patch from Albert Graef)
- added -inwin option (patch from Albert Graef)
- added support for virtual size != visible size.
- added support for panning (ggiSetOrigin)
- added support for up to 16 frames.
- added support for asynchronous mode (no background updates when active).
- added support for fullscreen and mode switching.
- preliminary support for palettized modes.
- display-auto has been added. It replaces the 5 years old linux specific target autodetection and handles it OS dependend
- works on Windows using MinGW w/o requiring special Makefiles.
- a pseudo-stubs target has been added by Peter Ekberg. It does effectively nothing, but gives extensions
a way to have one target that stands for all targets that passes all operations to their parent visuals.
libggiwmh and libggimisc make palemu and trueemu working with it w/o having a target for each of them.
- display-mansync has been reworked by Peter Ekberg. It now uses the platform independent task scheduler.
- added a new macro: GT_ByPPP which is basically GT_ByPP but for packed pixels and it takes two arguments.
New in 2.0.7: 2004-11-30:
* minor buildsystem update
* eliminate lvalue assignments. Fixes problems with latest gcc versions
* Use more length bounded string operations
New in 2.0.6: 2004-09-14:
* build system:
- Prepend with GII include path when --with-uninst-gii is specified via configure
- disable vgagl helper when not building the svga target
* X-target:
- Bugfix: Ensure aligned memory access. Fixes crash on NetBSD/sparc64
- Bugfix: Perform correct clipping in ggiFillscreen(3).
* display-memory: Bugfix: Free directbuffer completely.
* display-monotext: Bugfix: ggiCheckMode() returns actual error code than always success.
* documentation update:
- add manual page for display-mansync
- do not document not-existing GGIFLAG_TIDYBUF flag. It is a new feature in devel tree.
New in 2.0.5: 2004-05-29:
* X-target:
- Fix over-allocation of win y dimension.
- Forward expose events to the application when -nobuffer is used.
- Fix "strange colored pixels when re-exposing backbuffer"-Bug.
- Focus pulling fix. Key focus should no longer get lost,
when the mouse is NOT over the window. Note: Don't forget to
update libgii's input-xwin and input-x before as libggi now
passes some additional information to libgii.
* build system: It checks for buildable demos. Fixes compiling breakage on some platforms.
* other build system updates
* libtool update. Fixes Debian bug #208288.
* documentation updates
Hi Christoph!
Changes:
o build fix: cygwin has no sys/shm.h and sys/ipc.h, so configure
disables all targets requiring them, if not present.
o cbconsist demo: sync with devel tree
o gcc 3.3 compiling fix for default/linear_16/crossbuild.c
(fixes Debian bug #197214)
o merged build fix from FreeBSD's ports tree to make the xf86dga
target compile on FreeBSD (fixes FreeBSD PR ports/52380)
o X-target
+ minor mode initialization fix from Argo Vessmann
+ shm helper checks return code, when setting up the
directbuffer
+ release locking on failure. (Threadsafety fix)
+ fixed geometry check. Opening (very) small windows is now
possible.
New in libggi 2.0.3:
* X-target:
* Fixed a bug, where a ggiFlush() call was missed, which makes
directbuffer content visible when releasing it.
* Fixed a clipping bug, causing to let disappear characters or
whole strings.

* Add -keepcursor option, which keeps the default cursor.
* Fixed crash when used 8bit characters
* Fixed endless loop when X11 server provides only and only
the same sort of X visuals
* Demo: Improved pageflip demo to test all primitives in a
multi-frame environment
* merged some compiler fixes from the OpenBSD ports tree
* fixed a crash, when a drawing primitive (i.e. a line) crossed
two borders of the clipping rectangle
* added 64bit fixes to wrap and cube3d demos
* minor improvements to checkmode and struct check tool
(important for target developers though)
* manpage fixes

o Use pkgsrc libtool not internal one - we caught up with the
internal one ages ago.
o Remove BUILD_DEPENDS on autoconf - the configure{,.in} hacks
will probably disappear if someone buildlinkifies this pkg.
o Sort PLIST
