- those systems now.
-
-2005-01-23 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * Added Grub support to boot options. Option UseLilo replaced

- Setup, Startup and Reset have the arg "auto" for automatic logins.
-
-2004-07-23 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-

- vtX in Xservers any more.
-
-2004-07-10 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-

- single GreeterPos which is a pair of relative coordinates
-
-2004-07-01 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>

- helper processes and disabling syslog usage.
-
-2004-04-09 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>

- disables it for local display now.
-
-2004-03-11 Chris Cheney <ccheney@cheney.cx>
-
- * Sanitized UserPath and SystemPath defaults.
-
-2004-03-07 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * Add user name autocompletion to greeter; option UserCompletion.
- As a side effect, "None" is gone from ShowUsers and UserList
- appeared; ShowUsers & SortUsers affect both the user list and
- the completion list.
-
-2004-02-28 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * The default Xsession no longer tries to merge tdm's PATH into the
- one set up by the shell startup scripts. Instead, kde.desktop
- contains a full pathname and starttde fixes up PATH if necessary.
- * The default Xsession will emulate the startup behaviour of more
- shells, in particular bash, zsh and csh/tcsh.
- * Setting up the session log is now done by tdm, not the Session
- script; option ClientLogFile.
-
-2004-01-25 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * Add support for specifying groups in SelectedUsers, HiddenUsers and
- NoPassUsers. Prefix group names with a @.
-
-2003-12-17 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * XDMCP initiated local displays are now treated as remote displays
- (on localhost) by the config reader.
-
-2003-11-09 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * Sanitized display restart behaviour; option StartInterval is gone.
-
-2003-11-04 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * Conversation plugins can be configured now; option PluginOptions.
- * The "Restart X Server"/"Close Connection" action can be configured
- away; option AllowClose.
- * The "Console Login" action can be configured away without touching
- Xservers; option AllowConsole.
-
-2003-10-27 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * TDM now complies with the input model of PAM. The greeter has an
- interface for conversation plugins, so alternative authentication
- mechanisms can be handled; options PluginsLogin & PluginsShutdown.
- * Password-less and automatic logins now use a separate PAM service
- (${TDM_PAM_SERVICE}-np).
-
-2003-10-17 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * Add --with-tdm-xconsole configure switch. No need to patch
- Makefile.am to enable the built-in xconsole anymore.
-
-2003-09-23 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * Session types are now defined with .desktop files; consequently the
- SessionTypes option is gone and we got SessionsDirs instead.
- * The default Xsession now hard-wires the session types
- - "default" to starttde
- - "custom" to ~/.xsession
- * The previous session type choice is now saved in a different file
- (~/.dmrc) in a different format (ini-file); the SessSaveFile option
- is gone. Optionally TDM can be configured to store all .dmrc files
- in a common directory (option DmrcDir); this can be useful for AFS
- based installations.
- * The location of the administratively set user faces is now specified
- by the FaceDir option and the pictures have a .face.icon extension
- (or .face for "natural" images, possibly photos).
-
- The spec for the above changes is shared with GDM, so packagers should
- choose common directories.
-
- * The tdmsts file moved to /var/lib/tdm by default; option DataDir.
- * Nuked the AutoLoginSession option; i don't think it was useful at all
- and it can be emulated anyway.
-
-2003-09-03 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * Add option RandomDevice to override the OS specific default
- entropy source.
-
-2003-08-26 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * Add random seed to forged "previous" session type calculation;
- option ForgingSeed.
-
-2003-07-15 Malte Starostik <malte@kde.org>
-
- * ColorScheme is now interpreted as the base name of the .kcsrc file,
- not the contents of its Name field.
-
-2003-05-11 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * GUIStyle & ColorScheme now accept an empty string, meaning
- "built-in default". Made defaults empty, consequently.
-
-2002-12-01 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * Integrated chooser into greeter; external 'chooser' executable
- and the Chooser option are gone.
- * The chooser can be started locally (without an XDMCP query);
- options LoginMode and ChooserHosts.
- * Added built-in xconsole to greeter; options ShowLog and LogSource.
- This code is not built by default; uncomment the first three lines
- in kfrontend/Makefile.am to enable it.
- * The DaemonMode option is gone. The command line switches -daemon and
- -nodaemon still exist, but are mostly unnecessary, as TDM can decide
- what to do based on the parent process ID.
- * The AutoLogin option and the -autolog/-noautolog switches are gone.
- * The AutoLogin1st option is gone.
- * The position of the -debug and -logfile command line options is
- irrelevant again. The -xrm option is back, but is ignored by the
- KDE frontend.
-
-2002-08-28 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * Made it possible to specify the color scheme for the greeter;
- option ColorScheme
-
-2002-08-10 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * Renamed tdmdesktop to krootimage, moved it back into the TDM source
- tree, and changed its command line
- * krootimage will be automatically invoked by the greeter by default;
- option UseBackground
- * Chucked out the [Desktop0] section from tdmrc. Instead, the
- location of the config file containing such a section is specified
- with the BackgroundRc option.
- * User images can now be optionally fetched from the users's home
- directories; option FaceSource
- * The default of the KeyFile option is now empty again
- * GreeterScreen now groks -2, meaning upper-right screen
-
-2002-08-06 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * Automatically don't daemonize if started by init.
-
-2002-03-19 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * The default Xsession will emulate the startup behaviour of sh/ksh
- by sourcing /etc/profile and ~/.profile.
-
-2002-03-10 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * Added InteractiveSd option. This is not really implemented yet,
- so enabling it just makes TDM deny the existence of the shutdown
- condition/timing options.
- * The Setup script is now executed synchronously. Long-lasting
- commands should be put in the background explicitly.
-
-2002-02-28 George Staikos <staikos@kde.org>
-
- * GreeterScreen now groks -1, meaning upper-left screen.
-
-2002-01-14 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * Added option NumLock {On,Off,Keep} to preset the NumLock modifier
- state for the greeter
-
-2001-12-11 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * Added AntiAliasing option to disable antialiasing in the greeter
-
-2001-11-30 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * Added GreeterScreen option to put the greeter on a particular
- screen in multi-headed setups.
- * Changed the default of Language from "C" to "en_US"
-
-2001-11-22 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * The defaults of the options Xservers, Session, Setup, Startup,
- Reset and PidFile are now back to the saner XDM defaults,
- so TDM works even without config files.
- * Changed option ShowUsers: All -> NotHidden
- * Renamed the option Users to SelectedUsers and NoUsers to HiddenUsers.
- * The GUIStyle option now groks all installed widget styles.
- Note that Motif+ and KDE are now called MotifPlus resp. Default.
-
-2001-11-02 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * Added conditional/scheduled shutdown modes; options
- DefaultSdMode and AllowSdForceNow; moved AllowShutdown from
- [X-<dpy>-Greeter] to [X-<dpy>-Core].
- * Added reserve display support; extension to Xservers.
- * Added command FiFo support (see README); options FifoDir,
- FifoGroup, [ShutDown]/AllowFifo, and [ShutDown]/AllowFifoNow.
- FiFo location and capabilities are exported in $XDM_MANAGED.
-
-2001-10-04 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * Xauth files are now created in AuthDir, not AuthDir/authdir.
- Changed AuthDir default to /var/run/xauth.
-
-2001-07-12 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * Renamed the option Xwilling to Willing
- * The RandomFile option is not recognized on Linux and OpenBSD any
- longer, as they have better entropy sources
-
-2001-07-10 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * Added the tool 'gentdmconf'. It's supposed to create a suitable
- configuration for TDM during 'make install' by merging new defaults
- with a previous XDM/TDM config (if any is found).
-
-2001-07-03 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * Added counterpart to the MinShowUID option: MaxShowUID
-
-2001-06-23 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * Xauth files are now created in AuthDir/authfiles, not
- AuthDir/authdir/authfiles
-
-2001-06-16 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * Optionally put the cursor right in the "Password" field when
- a user is preselected in the "Login" field; option FocusPasswd
-
-2001-06-15 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * Replaced the ShutdownButton + ShutdownNeedsRoot option pair with
- the AllowShutdown {None,Root,All} option
-
-2001-06-10 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * The source directory structure changed entirely
- * The argument to the -debug command line option is now a bit field;
- the DebugLevel resource is gone
- * The ErrorLogFile resource is gone
- * The greeter module libKdmGreet.so has been converted to an
- executable named tdm_greet; the external config parser is now
- named tdm_config. The resource GreeterLib and the command line
- option -getcfg (and -cfg2get) are gone, as the locations of the
- config parser and greeter are derived from the location of the
- tdm executable
- * The config files are all located in ${kde_confdir}/tdm now; the
- defaults for Setup & Session were adapted to this.
- * The keys in tdmrc were reorganized:
- - [TDM]/ShutdownButton -> [X-<dpy>-Greeter]/(ShutdownButton &
- ShutdownNeedsRoot)
- - [TDM]/Shutdown -> [Shutdown]/HaltCmd
- - [TDM]/Restart -> [Shutdown]/RebootCmd
- - [TDM]/LogoArea -> [X-*-Greeter]/ {None,Logo,Clock}
- - remaining keys from [TDM] -> [X-*-Greeter]/
- - [Lilo]/Lilo -> [Shutdown]/UseLilo
- - [Lilo]/LiloCommand -> [Shutdown]/LiloCmd
- - [Lilo]/LiloMap -> [Shutdown]/
- - [Locale]/Language -> [X-*-Greeter]/ (Country key dropped)
- * TDM will no longer use tdm-config; most of its resources were
- absorbed into tdmrc:
- - Servers -> [General]/Xservers
- - RequestPort -> [Xdmcp]/(Port & Enable)
- - DaemonMode -> [General]/
- - PidFile -> [General]/
- - LockPidFile -> [General]/
- - AuthDir -> [General]/
- - AutoRescan -> [General]/
- - RemoveDomainname -> [Xdmcp]/
- - KeyFile -> [Xdmcp]/
- - AccessFile -> [Xdmcp]/Xaccess/
- - ExportList -> [General]/
- - RandomFile -> [General]/
- - ChoiceTimeout -> [Xdmcp]/
- - SourceAddress -> [Xdmcp]/
- - Willing -> [Xdmcp]/Xwilling
- - AutoLogin -> [General]/
- - GrabServer -> [X-<dpy>-Greeter]/
- - GrabTimeout -> [X-<dpy>-Greeter]/
- - AuthComplain -> [X-<dpy>-Greeter]/
- - AuthName -> [X-<dpy>-Core]/AuthNames
- - NoPassUsers -> [X-<dpy>-Core]/ & [X-<dpy>-Core]/NoPassEnable
- - AutoUser -> [X-<dpy>-Core]/(AutoLoginUser & AutoLoginEnable)
- - AutoPass -> [X-<dpy>-Core]/AutoLoginPass
- - AutoString -> [X-<dpy>-Core]/AutoLoginSession
- - remaining server & session resources -> [X-<dpy>-Core]/
- * In GreetString the HOSTNAME substitution was replaced with the
- %%, %d, %h, %n, %s, %r & %m expandos
- * EchoMode does not understand "NoStars" any more. Use "NoEcho".
- * Defaults changed: AuthDir to /var/lib/tdm, KeyFile to
- $tdm_confdir/tdmkeys, Xservers to $tdm_confdir/Xservers, Xaccess to
- $tdm_confdir/Xaccess, Startup to $tdm_confdir/Xstartup, Reset to
- $tdm_confdir/Xreset, removed kde2 from SessionTypes
- * The previous user is now saved in $tdm_confdir/tdmsts, not tdmrc
- * Added option SessSaveFile, defaulting to .wmrc
- * Command line option changes:
- - -server, -udpPort, -resources, -session and -xrm are gone
- - -error is aliased to -logfile
- - -debug and -error/-logfile must be specified first
- - options are now accepted with both one and two leading dashes
- * The default Xsession will now
- - source ~/.xprofile if present
- - try harder to determine what executable $1 corresponds to
- - interpret "default" as ~/.xsession
-
-2001-03-19 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * %DMNAME% and %DMPATH% are expanded in string resources;
- changed the defaults for PidFile and ConfigFile accordingly -
- the latter resulting in TDM now using tdm-config, NOT xdm-config
- * Use external config parser to merge platform-specific (that is,
- KDE-like) configuration data into the XDM resources; command line
- options -getcfg (default %DMPATH%_getcfg) and -cfg2get (no default,
- meaning tdm_getcfg will use $kde_confdir/tdmrc).
- * Changed "kde" to "kde2" in the default SessionTypes
- * Stolen idea for console mode handling from dtlogin; options
- ConsoleMode and AllowConsoleMode are gone; extension to Xservers
-
-2001-01-19 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>

- built-in widget styles and the "KDE" style
-
-2001-01-11 Oswald Buddenhagen <ossi@kde.org>
-
- * Added placing of the greeter at fixed coordinates; options

-
- The tdmrc options and xdm-config resources are "ORed", i.e., if
- either is enabled, the function is enabled.
- The command line options -autolog/-noautolog and the resource AutoLogin
- can be used to disable auto-login and password-less login at once.
-
- * Added displaying the previously logged in user in the "Login"
- field; option ShowPrevious. The previous user is saved in tdmrc,

- option EchoMode {OneStar,ThreeStars,NoEcho}
-
