Now gdm will + automatically start writing output to ~/.xsession-errors for EVERY + session file and not just in the Xsession file. Well every file + except the failsafe ones (including sessions named 'Failsafe') + +- More error checking. Check if we messed up writing the auth stuff + and give an error, also check if the session lasted less then 10 + seconds in which case give a warning rather then silently fail. + +- Don't init gnome in the daemon, this should fix a whole bunch + of random issues and crashes. Also don't init gnome in the + chooser. + +- Use setresuid to fix setuid problem with the failsafe gtk stuff. + +- Browser now gets the pictures through a pipe rather then through + temporary files. This is much nicer. + +- Fix hostname and interface querying. Should work better on "broken" + setups now. + +- Fix focus issues on the failsafe stuff + +- Fix autologin stuff (should fix #68160) + +- Use BSDs setusercontext if found. This is not fully tested as + I don't have a BSD box. + +- Add greeter/MinimalUID which is the minimal UID to show in the + browser and in the dropdown lists in gdmsetup + +- Don't exclude people from the browser that have '*' in the password + field as that could be legitimate + +- Fix xnest flexi server on nfs mounted home dirs with root squashing. + This required a protocol change to the socket protocol, but I don't + think anything outside of gdmflexiserver is using it (and it will + fail gracefully anyway), fixes #82122 + +- Some random UI issues fixed (#80038, and others) + +- The graphical greeter is now translatable (and thus translated into + more languages) + +- I bet no one reads these long NEWS sections anyway. + +- Photosetup now always copies to .gnome/photo, even if the picture + is in the pixmaps directory + +- Few crashes fixed + +- Build fixes, among others #79374 (Christophe Merlet, Carlos Perello + Marin, me) + +- Translation updates (Vincent van Adrighem, Duarte Loreto, Kjartan Maraas, + Stanislav Visnovsky, Christian Rose, Zbigniew Chyla, GNOME PL Team, + Ole Laursen, Young-Ho Cha, Changwoo Ryu, Abel Cheung, Simos Xenitellis, me) + 2.3.90.3 stuff: - The instant apply, no crack, setup proggie (gdmsetup) now works, |
