v0.5.0
|
|
|
|
|
This version has split off from unstable-0.4.3. Includes major changes.
|
|
|
|
|
+ LCDd now does dynamic loading of driver modules
|
|
|
|
|
* New API in use
|
|
|
|
|
+ LCDd will use fill-in functions for drivers that don't support a certain
|
|
|
|
|
function. Available for: vbar, hbar, bignum, heartbeat, icon, cursor.
|
|
|
|
|
* Server internal functions cleaned up, moved to other files etc.

|
|
|
|
|
anymore.
|
|
|
|
|
+ Reloading of configuration and drivers by sending a SIGHUP. Probably
|
|
|
|
|
needs improvement ;)
|
|
|

|
* HD44780 output register support on winamp wiring
|
|
|
|
|
* Reporting levels are now used more consistently
|
|
|

|
|
* Display update frequency is now exactly 8Hz. Key scan frequency increased
|
|
|
|
|
to 32Hz.
|
|
|
|
|
* Priority scheme changed. Priority classes are now used, that indicate what
|
|
|
|
|
kind of a screen we're dealing with. More useful for interactive clients.

v0.4.3
|
|
|
|
|
- Removed possibility of passing arguments to the drivers from the
|
|
|
|
|
command line, which can be done in the configuration file now
|
|
|
|
|
+ Added configuration file support
|
|
|
|
|
+ Added ability of dropping root privileges to LCDd
|
|
|
|
|
+ Added LCDM001 driver (kernelconcepts.de)
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
supported
|
|
|
|
|
+ Added ASCII emulation of BigNum to the drivers that did not
|
|
|
|
|
support custom characters
|
|
|
|
|
+ Added ability of configuring (rearranging) the keypad of MtxOrb
|
|
|
|
|
displays
|
|
|
|
|
+ Added .lircrc location to the options of the lirc driver
|
|
|
|
|
* Fixed backlight code (partly rewritten)
|
|
|
|
|
* Fixed heartbeat code (completely rewritten analogous to
|
|
|
|
|
the backlight code)
|
|
|
|
|
+ Added init scripts for debian and Redhat/Mandrake
|
|
|
|
|
+ Added EPM list file so that you can use EPM
|
|
|
|
|
(http://www.easysw.com/epm) to generate packages of LCDproc
|
|
|
|
|
+ Added documentation in docbook format
|
|
|
|
|
(LCDproc User's Guide - docs/lcdproc-user)
|
|
|
|
|
* Ported some screens of lcdproc to *BSD.
|
|
|
|
|
* Ported the parallel port functions in port.h to *BSD.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
v0.4.2:
|
|
|
|
|
- Removed multiple output driver support - to simplify life
|
|
|
|
|
* Removed use of sprintf() (in favor of snprintf) for security
|
|
|
|
|
+ Added ability to use defined port and address to listen on
|
|
|
|
|
(for security) - now defaults to 127.0.0.1
|
|
|
|
|
+ Revamped curses driver: now supports color; has border; and
|
|
|
|
|
can be (with recompile) placed anywhere on screen it fits
|
|
|
|
|
+ Added --waittime server argument. You can now specify how long
|
|
|
|
|
a screen should stay on the display. The default is 64 ticks or
|
|
|
|
|
8 seconds.
|
|
|
|
|
+ Fixed compile problems on non-Linux platforms where cfmakeraw,
|
|
|
|
|
CBAUD, and ioperm don't exist. All drivers now use the same code
|
|
|
|
|
to initialize a serial port.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
v0.4.1:
|
|
|
|
|
+ Changed protocol to 0.3 because we now accept both -foo and foo
|
|
|
|
|
as argument introducers. in 0.4-pre10, these were changed
|
|
|
|
|
from foo to -foo and this broke many clients. This change
|
|
|
|
|
should fix that and be backward/forward compatible.
|
|
|
|
|
+ Added a noop function to the protocol. This is useful for writing
|
|
|
|
|
shell script clients of LCDproc.
|
|
|
|
|
+ Changed the shared sock_send_string function to NOT send the
|
|
|
|
|
ending NUL ('\0') byte with the string. This was confusing
|
|
|
|
|
in Perl clients which saw NUL's as the first character of
|
|
|
|
|
each reply. WARNING: The LCDPROC client depended on this
|
|
|
|
|
behavior, your client may too. Use the newline instead.
|
|
|
|
|
See the code in clients/lcdproc/main.c (look for "switch(buf[i])")
|
|
|
|
|
to see one way to handle this. This should allow new clients
|
|
|
|
|
to connect to old servers and vice-versa.
|
|
|
|
|
+ Messed with include structure in .c files. It should no longer
|
|
|
|
|
be necessary to specify ../.. to get to shared code headers.
|
|
|
|
|
Also, since we are using automake, the global config.h can be
|
|
|
|
|
found with just #include "config.h" as it's location is included
|
|
|
|
|
in a -I to the compilers. As a result "make distcheck" now works.
|
|
|
|
|
+ Added support for client_add_key and friends. Clients MUST now
|
|
|
|
|
request keys to get notified. Keys are NO LONGER broadcast to all
|
|
|
|
|
clients. Keys are now tied to a SCREEN and CLIENT. There are new
|
|
|
|
|
commands (screen_add_key, screen_del_key) to bind keys to a
|
|
|
|
|
screen. If the current screen has requested the key just pressed,
|
|
|
|
|
the client gets the key and no other client gets it. If the current
|
|
|
|
|
screen has not requested the current key, then the key is broadcast
|
|
|
|
|
to all clients who requested that key with client_add_key. Clients
|
|
|
|
|
might want to request a "hotkey" with client_add_key so they will
|
|
|
|
|
be notified of that key no matter what screen is currently on the
|
|
|
|
|
display, and then request whatever other keys a screen uses with
|
|
|
|
|
screen_add_key.
|
|
|
|
|
+ Added driver for Matrix Orbital GLK12232-25 graphical display.
|
|
|
|
|
Display is run in text mode since there isn't enough information in
|
|
|
|
|
the widgets. If we knew the max width/height of an hbar/vbar, we
|
|
|
|
|
could use graphical vbar/hbar's. Oh well. BigNums' look really
|
|
|
|
|
cool though. You'll need some additional characters in the "Small Font"
|
|
|
|
|
font (and the BigNumbers font) for this to work.
|
|
|
|
|
+ Rewrote Big Number Clock function in chrono.c. Many problems with
|
|
|
|
|
it have been fixed. It now uses number value 10 to display a colon
|
|
|
|
|
in between the digits. Don't know what this will do on a the MtxOrb
|
|
|
|
|
driver. GLK driver draws a colon.
|
|
|
|
|
+ Cleaned up the CPU GRAPH (G) function in cpu.c and made get_load take
|
|
|
|
|
a 'struct load' from the caller to save the last time values. This
|
|
|
|
|
allows two callers (CPU GRAPH and CPU LOAD) to call get_load and
|
|
|
|
|
both get reaosonable values. Without this, CPU GRAPH was always
|
|
|
|
|
getting 0 because it was called immediatly after CPU LOAD called
|
|
|
|
|
get_load and no clock ticks had gone by.
|
|
|
|
|
+ Changed --enable-debug autoconf option to be processed correctly.
|
|
|
|
|
Debug now turns on -g and turns off -O6
|
|
|
|
|
+ Lots of other little fixes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
v0.4-pre10:
|
|
|
|
|
+ Metar client added (Weather information)
|
|
|
|
|
+ Linux infrared control (LIRC) driver added.
|
|
|
|
|
+ "rotating slash" heartbeat mode (looks weird on CFontz displays)
|
|
|
|
|
Use "screen_set s -heartbeat slash" to use this.
|
|
|
|
|
* Switched to client-server protocol V0.2, so arguments can come in
|
|
|
|
|
any order, and require a "-" on the front. Instead of
|
|
|
|
|
"widget_set s w 1 2 foo", use "widget_set s w -x 1 -y 2 -text foo".
|
|
|
|
|
* Server info screen no longer enabled by default.
|
|
|
|
|
* Merged Andrew McMeikan's HD44780 driver changes
|
|
|
|
|
- Removed WHATSNEW
|
|
|
|
|
+ Added ChangeLog (okay, fine, I renamed WHATSNEW and typed a few
|
|
|
|
|
entries into it :)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
V0.4-pre9:
|
|
|
|
|
* small fixes for irix
|
|
|
|
|
* Added flag in LCDd to shut off server screen:
|
|
|
|
|
"-i off" or "--serverinfo off"
|
|
|
|
|
+ Wirz SLI driver
|
|
|
|
|
+ 16x2 support (server only)
|
|
|
|
|
+ MtxOrb generic output support in driver
|
|
|
|
|
* Misc libc5 fixes
|
|
|
|
|
+ support for arbitrary display sizes; anything 16-80 characters
|
|
|
|
|
wide, and 2-25 characters tall. (doesn't work if you try to use
|
|
|
|
|
a display size bigger than your LCD.. :)
|
|
|
|
|
* curses driver looks slightly better (titles)
|
|
|
|
|
* sizes > 20x4 no longer crash
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
V0.4-pre8:
|
|
|
|
|
* LCDd gives more updated info in the connect string:
|
|
|
|
|
cell size, lcd dimensions.
|
|
|
|
|
* bargraphs are now the correct length on CFontz displays, in the main
|
|
|
|
|
lcdproc client. For other clients, please parse the connect string!
|
|
|
|
|
* MtxOrb driver supports simultaneous vbars/hbars now, with a
|
|
|
|
|
mechanism to automatically use custom characters for as many
|
|
|
|
|
as possible.
|
|
|
|
|
+ 20x2 support in LCDd! Use "--type 20x2".
|
|
|
|
|
(LCDd --type 20x2 -d MtxOrb )
|
|
|
|
|
* LCDd can change backlight brightness instead of shutting it "off"
|
|
|
|
|
* HD44780 should work again (LCDd forks earlier now.. oops :)
|
|
|
|
|
+ 20x2 support in lcdproc client for the following screens:
|
|
|
|
|
C G T M X D B S U A
|
|
|
|
|
Support will not be added for K and O screens.
|
|
|
|
|
+ BSD support (?)
|
|
|
|
|
* 20x4 screens should display correctly on 40x4 displays
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
to put something in a frame.
|
|
|
|
|
+ The disk screen is back!
|
|
|
|
|
- Frame rendering isn't finished.. the renderer probably needs a
|
|
|
|
|
complete rewrite. Any volunteers? :)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
V0.4-pre4:

|
|
+ Heartbeat modes implemented. Clients can remove it with
|
|
|
|
|
widget_del my_screen heartbeat
|
|
|
|
|
or turn it back on with
|
|
|
|
|
widget_add my_screen heartbeat " "
|
|
|
|
|
Note that the client only has control over this when the heartbeat
|
