2.8.0.7 stuff:
- Changes to peeking VT freeness in 2.13.0.1 broke
virtual terminal support on BSD. This release
corrects this problem. (Brian Cameron)
- Correct Linux get VT logic so it returns the
correct VT. (Frederic Crozat)
- Now gdmlogin always uses GDK_RGB_DITHER_MAX
when painting the background to ensure a nice
background regardless of X configuration
(e.g. X in 16bpp mode). (Frederic Crozat)
- Now check for Xserver in prefix /usr.
(J\303\274rg Billeter)
- Fix configure for Darwin. (dmacks@netspace.org)
- Fix compiler warnings. (Frederic Crozat,
dmacks@netspace.org, Brian Cameron)
- Ensure gnome.desktop and default.desktop have
644 perms. (Andrew Benton)
- Translation updates (Takeshi AIHANA, Runa Bhattacharjee,
Dan Damian, Theppitak Karoonboonyanan, Inaki Larranaga,
Priit Laes, Roozbeh Pournader, Alexander Shopov, Marcel
Telka, Miloslav Trmac)
2.8.0.6 stuff:
- Fix problem with PostSession script not always
getting executed when user kills the Xserver
with ctrl-alt-backspace. This is caused because
an xioerror is generated when the clients are
killed and this needs to be ignored for the
PostSession script to be processed. This problem
tended not to manifest in GDM 2.6 since the
call to kill the clients was made earlier.
However, it was still a race condition in 2.6
and this fix ensures that the slave will never
exit too early. (Jerry G. DeLapp)
- The "OK" and "Cancel" buttons in gdmlogin and
gdmgreeter now work consistantly. Now the gdmlogin
"Cancel" button is active when the Username is
requested and pressing it just clears the field, so
it works like gdmgreeter. Also fixed a bug in
gdmgreeter where a user could corrupt gdmgreeter's
memory by hitting cancel after authentication, which
could only happen if the PostLogin script caused a
long enough delay to allow this to happen.
(Brian Cameron)
- No longer set tooltips for menu items in gdmlogin.
They are distracting and do not work with
accessibility. No GNOME programs use menu tooltips
and it is not recommend. (Brian Cameron)
- If slave does not respond to a SIGTERM, try a
SIGKILL the second time. This resolves a problem
where GDM sometimes stops managing a display
because it just keeps waiting for the slave to
die. See bug #113902. (Vaclav Smilauer).
- GDM now uses VT_GETSTATE for peeking VT freeness
- Now GDM warns correctly about caps lock if an
alternate keymap is enabled. kbGetState is used
instead of XkbGetIndicator State.
(Sebastien Bacher)
- Now set cursor and watch as soon as GTK+ is
initialized and the configure file read, which
shortens the amount of time the backgrounds is
Xserver default grey. Cleaned up the code so
that all programs use a common function to set the
background. (Brian Cameron)
- Fix reading of config file in gdmflexiserver so
it properly reads in the available servers.
(Christiaan Welvaart)
- Fixed race condition where a variable used by
the signal handlers was not being set until after
the signal handlers were setup. Now it is set
before avoiding a race. (Simon Bowden/Brian
Cameron)
- Define SoundProgram to be /usr/bin/autoplay on
Solaris instead of /usr/bin/play, since
/usr/bin/play doesn't exist on Solaris.
- Check for XInput fixed in configure and add a
check for libgen.h to avoid compiler warnings.
(Brian Cameron)
- Updated check in configure for socklen_t so it
includes sys/socket.h to better support BSD
platforms that define socklen_t there.
(dmacks@netspace.org)
- No longer link vicious-extensions with the gesture
listeners, since they don't use vicious-extensions.
