restricted-manager: statusexplanation |
Fixed in -xorgconf branch. |
restricted-manager (0.15) feisty; urgency=low
.
* debian/control: Use XS-Python-Version 'all' instead of 'current', since
the latter seems to break quite often on upgrades. (see #93795)
* applications/restricted-manager.desktop.in: Do not show for non-admins.
(LP: #97163)
* Add RestrictedManager/xorgconfig.py (stolen from kdeguidance):
Parser/writer for X.org configuration files. Add author and copyright to
debian/copyright.
* RestrictedManager/xorgconfig.py: Change formatting a bit to make it more
similar to what dexconf produces.
* RestrictedManager/xorg_driver.py:
- Use xorgconfig.py to mangle /etc/X11/xorg.conf directly instead of
relying on consistent debconf values and using dexconf. This makes r-m
work with custom configurations (including install scripts from
nvidia/fglrx upstream packages) and avoids changing unrelated settings
like keyboard/screen resolution/BusID etc. (LP: #92836, LP: #94549,
LP: #93075)
- Back up the entire original config before enabling a driver. If it
exists when disabling again, restore it entirely. (LP: #96474)
- is_enabled(): Do not check for installed GLX library package any more
(such as nvidia-glx), since they could be installed directly from
upstream. Now only check the xorg.conf configuration. (LP: #94626)
- Add {enable,disable}_config_hook() for nonstandard modifications to the
X.org configuration.
* RestrictedManager/fglrx.py: Use above *_config_hook() to add/remove the
'Extensions' section and disable Composite. In previous versions, dexconf
did that for us.
* restricted-manager: Drop check for readability of debconf database, since
we do not need it any more.
* Some small UI improvements, thanks to izi!
- Remove the redundant 'Enable' button, we already have the check boxes.
- Display stock yes/no/reload icons in addition to the textual status.
- Add window icon.
- Do not update the tree model when cancelling enabling/disabling.
- Make modal dialogs transient.
* RestrictedManager/core.py: Add a global variable
package_install_idle_function which, if set to a function, is executed
repeatedly while waiting for synaptic to finish. This avoids GTK specific
code in the backend.
* restricted-manager: Set core.package_install_idle_function to a default
GTK event processing loop. (LP: #97399)
* restricted-manager: Determine main window xid and pass it to synaptic as
parent window, so that it becomes transient.
