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. + +- Translation updates (Takeshi AIHANA, Runa Bhattacharjee, + Dan Damian, Maxim Dziumanenko, Laurent Dhima, + Theppitak Karoonboonyanan, Priit Laes, Inaki Larranaga, + Roozbeh Pournader, Ignacio Casal Quinteiro, Christian + Rose, Ivar Smolin, Marcel Telka, Ilkka Tuohela, Miloslav + Trmac) + 2.8.0.5 stuff: - gdmflexiserver supports --startnew option so that diff --git a/configure.in b/configure.in index 3b694636..001f3e83 100644 --- a/configure.in +++ b/configure.in @@ -2,7 +2,7 @@ AC_PREREQ(2.52) AC_INIT(daemon/gdm.h) AM_CONFIG_HEADER(config.h) -AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(gdm,2.8.0.5) +AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(gdm,2.8.0.6) AM_MAINTAINER_MODE AC_PROG_INTLTOOL([0.28]) diff --git a/docs/C/gdm.xml b/docs/C/gdm.xml index beeb3947..f074be5f 100644 --- a/docs/C/gdm.xml +++ b/docs/C/gdm.xml @@ -2,8 +2,8 @@ - - + + ]>
