qingy 0.2.3

- Now qingy locks vt switching when it enters DirectFB mode.
So it no longer crashes when you switch VT while it is starting
- no longer necessary to use a seed file to select a random theme
(you can safely remove file /etc/qingy/seed if it exists)
- Added support for text mode sessions
(just add your session script in /etc/qingy/sessions)
- Moved themes directory to /etc/qingy/themes
(note that you do not need to change your /etc/qingy/settings)
- Added some code to allow restarting of gpm even if it was
stopped by a previous session of qingy (that crashed ;-P)
- Removed '--silent' option. Now qingy is silent by default.
If you still want to get diagnostic messages on stderr
you have to use the '--verbose' option
- Added photo screen saver (it displays a slide show of photos)
- Added option 'SCREEN_SAVER' to config file. You can specify
'pixel' or 'photo' to select which screen saver you want
- Added option 'IMAGES_PATH' to config file. Use it to specify
a directory containing images to use with photo screen saver.
Note: you can specify more than one path by putting
several 'IMAGES_PATH' lines into the config file.
- No longer necessary to start qingy in the first 12 ttys
- Added support for comments is config file.
- A surprise now awaits the rightful master ;-)
- The usual minor fixes and clean ups
