This new version's main feature is its support for Ubuntu 9.10Here's the list of what has changed in this release:
- Fixed many UI issues. The settings window should now look perfect for all screen savers..
- This version is based on the Chris Halse's trunk which greatly improves several internal routines.
- Fixed several minor bugs...
This new version includes several minor bug fixes as well as some major interface changes. Here's the list of what has changed in this release:
- screensaver-settings is now distributed under the GNU Lesser General Public License version 3.
- The program will now automatically hide the settings window when switching to fullscreen or selecting either the Random or Blank settings.
- Added support to display the settings from a "command" control but support to modify the screensaver's command line is not yet supported (and probably never will) so the textbox will appear disabled.
- For some reason, getting the Random Cycle Delay parameter from GCONF will fail. This hasn't been resolved yet but, at least, the program will not crash when this occurs.
- Made some substantial modifications to the GUI in order to conform to the suggestions made by Matthew Paul Thomas. Not all his suggestions are implemented and those that were are not 100% functional.
The changes include:
- Moved the screensaver daemon settings to the top of the dialog.
- Added a selection box (dropdown) to select the operation mode: Blank Screen, One Screensaver or Random.
- The selection of which screensavers should be included while in random mode it is now made on the same dialog.
This new release of screensaver-settings fixes many of the known bugs and adds support for other Linux distributions such as openSUSE 10.3
Here's a list of some of the most important fixes and improvements:
- Fixed bug that could cause the program to crash if you switched
screensavers as the program was closing.
- Fixed bug that caused the settings window to improperly intialize
number-based controls (such as sliders and spinbuttons).
- Removed all the "Console.WriteLine" entries that served only for
debugging purposes.
- Improved support for other Linux distributions (such as openSUSE).
- Fixed a bug that caused the program to not close/terminate
properly.
- screensaver-settings settings no longer needs to be run as root (gksudo).
Whenever the program detects that it needs to update a screensaver it will
ask for the user's permission.
