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 -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.

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.
