Needed a quick new release:
* Fix disappearing favorites.
* Add context menu with quick access to favorites and QuickLaunch's
"About" to Deskbar replicant.
* Updated localization and documentation.
* Tiny tweaks to the QuickLaunch icon.
- Both Noto and Noto Sans CJK JP are now used as font fallbacks,
allowing to cover a rather large range of characters. This also makes
it possible to mix the two fonts easily.
- Remove VL-Gothic from packages and from AboutSystem
- Add Noto fonts to the dependencies of the Haiku package.
This provides a similar look for all languages as discussed on the
mailing list.
* Added a "Free registration" text file. As the user has to
re-register from time to time for some reason, it may be
easier to find the info in a text file in the app's folder
than looking into the decription of SynC Modular in HaikuDepot.
* FuseSMB provides access to shared files and folders over SMB.
It features automatic discovery of servers and shares and
displays them as a folder hierarchy in a virtual volume on the
desktop
* Supports interactive authentication to access shares which require
login. Just open it, and a dialog pops up. Login data is stored in
BKeyStore.
* Comes with a network preferences add-on to easily enable and
configure it. No barbaric manual typing of mount commands required!
* Makes use of Haiku FUSE extensions to give custom MIME types with
icons for workgroup/share/server folders. Thanks again to humdinger
for designing the workgroup and share icons!
* Although the used libsmbclient only supports SMB protocol
version 1, performance is decent enough. Getting around ~75MiB/s
reading over a GbE link here
This reverts commit 945566ff43.
As discussed on the mailing lists and with Humdinger off-list:
* The general design concensus tends slightly towards DejaVu, as metrics
of DejaVu look much better (DejaVu 12 and Noto 13 are roughly the same size,
but Noto has much wider margins with that)
* While Noto does have a wider set of fonts with support for lots of
different languages, DejaVu actually has built-in support for more
Unicode languages (the default Noto has, as far as I can tell, only
Latin/Greek/Cyrillic [2416 glyphs], while DejaVu also has Armenian, Georgian,
and a few other scripts too [5119 glyphs].)
* The worse rendering of DejaVu appears to have been somewhat rectified by
disabling the average-based subpixel filter in app_server.
* When --host-only is used, HAIKU_*ARCH is undefined.
* Various architecture variables are undefined resulting
in architecture dependant code paths getting called
recursively.
(blah/Jamfile loads blah//Jamfile vs blah/x86/Jamfile)
* Another option is setting HAIKU_*ARCH to the host arch
if undefined, but that might have unintended impacts.
Release v1.0
Fewer bugs, full of drag&drop.
* Add clips to favorites and re-ordering favorites with drag & drop.
* Drag & drop clips and favorites into other apps.
* Power user feature: holding SHIFT while pasting to sprunge.us keeps window
open.
* Made history clips titles editable as well.
* Made the GUI unambiguous. There's only ever one clip shown as active.
* Added menu items that apply to clips/favorites, re-ordered context menus.
* Renamed menu to "Lists" and added item to "Clear favorites".
* Added Romanian translation. Thanks Emrys!
* Updated Russian translation. Thanks Diver!
* Bug fix: Fixed drawing errors of split view handle on resize.
* Bug fix: Fixed issues when starting without settings file.
* Bug fix: Fixed crash when trying to paste to sprunge.us with no selection.
* Bug fix: Put formerly 2nd clip into clipboard when 1st was removed.
* Bug fix: Correctly show GUI controls availablity (e.g. the move buttons).
- This is the latest from the 0.10 branch.
- It includes several improvements and update to codecs, while keeping
the old API.
- The patch to keep things working with gcc2 is getting quite huge.
Tested working with various files, no regressions spotted so far. Please
help complete the test set if you have files that stop working with this
version.
There are some delays in making the actual package repo generated by the
buildbot go live. Until then, I'm going to manually update the existing
repositories with the built packages, so people can start to experiment
with them and report any new issues.
There are more updates coming, but I'm doing them gradually so we can see
which set of packages triggers a regression, should one happen.
This is separate to the VESA driver, as the VESA driver requires
using the VBE BIOS. Under UEFI, we don't have the VBE BIOS, nor
are we able to switch modes after leaving UEFI Boot Services, so
a dumb framebuffer driver seemed like the easier way to approach
the problem.
The framebuffer & vesa drivers now test for the presence of the
VESA_MODES_BOOT_INFO boot item to distinguish between which driver
to use. Also added check for the VESA mode count to determine
whether to add the VESA_MODES_BOOT_INFO item.
UEFI video updated to explicitly zero out the VESA and EDID
boot data.
Revert "repo rework: Remove stubs; Breaks repo compat."
Revert "repo rework: Remove need for repos to be self-aware"
This reverts commit a2b2f4d642.
This reverts commit 602076ef82.
This reverts commit 5ffaf72c8a.
These changes break the build on Haiku and the ability to create repo
mirrors, for the lack of a replacement for the URL (an UUID was evoked
on the mailing lists, but not implemented).
We are due for a release soon, please don't break the build.
* See #12917 for details.
* Squashed to one commit to make revert easy if we
run into any issues.
* pkgman is now pre-attached to the 'current' repo
version within nightly images so they can be updated
by default.
* This shouldn't impact us keeping older sets of package
versions by commit hash for building older hrevs.
* There are XXX stubs with "Kill me". These will need
to be dropped after users are given sufficent time to
upgrade. We're dropping a previously required field (url)
so making this a slowish roll out.
* Makes the repos a lot less restrictive which should
help PM package building automation be a bit easier.
* Once this stuff smooths out, we'll add UUID's to the
repo definitions for duplicate repo detection.
* Re ML discussions, this should make a lot more
sense to users as it is inline with what most
linux distros ship.
* This will require a tweak to the buildbot.
* First step to shipping anyboot instead of plain iso.
Added Haiku's new forums.
Added BeBytes.
Removed GuestOne repo (can be re-added if they return).
Added empty "Bookmarks bar" folder.
Added overlay icons for the folders in "Bookmarks".
- B_TRIM_DEVICE on a ram disk frees all requested pages. Reading from a
trimmed page returns all 0s. This can be used with fstrim to release
memory for the parts not used by the filesystem, without unregistering
then registering the device.
- Add icon and ioctl to get it.
- Add it to the image, because it works reasonably well and there is no
reason not to include it.
Thanks to Pete Goodeve for patiently providing help and feedback wrt
the package layout and esp. for his device definitions for the Roland GS
and Yamaha XG.
* beaglebone vs beagleboard
* While the boards are almost the same, they have
diff. FDT's now (more memory, different layout etc)
* Make u-boot script more rpi-like
(depend on u-boot for initial addresses)
* Wasn't working, still doesn't.
from a stock GDB source tree.
I was getting tired of doing it manually.
Note the prefix is not exactly the same as the buildtools since the
machine triplet is different, but it's not an issue.
Tested with arm and ppc with GDB 7.8. Might need patching gdbTarget for other archs,
as stock GDB doesn't know about Haiku.
Removed the unneeded UI versions of Noto. According to the FAQ [1], those
"have tighter vertical metrics, and some glyphs that would be clipped are
redrawn to fit within the constrained space", which doesn't seem necessary
for Haiku. Could be re-added, of course, if it turns out otherwise...
Added Noto CJK fonts. All of them contain the glyphs for jp, kr, sc, tc.
Only differ in their default language.
