Notes: ====== These are the release notes for LCDproc v0.5.6, the next stable version of LCDproc. This release includes some new drivers and some important updates to the build system. See below for a brief list or the file ChangeLog for a more comprehensive one. The CFontz633 driver has been removed. Please use the CFontzPacket driver instead (setting Model=633 in LCDd.conf). The new glcd driver supports graphic displays and can use a built-in 5x8 font or FreeType 2 to render text. Currently supported are T6963 displays connected to the parallel port, the GLCD2USB device, and all devices supported by the serdisplib library. Fingerprint: ============ SHA1 (lcdproc-0.5.6.tar.gz) = 1d0a4d068141f3c8526cadea035b58b37697600c Known bugs: =========== - If vBars are used together with ICON_BLOCK_FILLED on the same screen and that icon is implemented as a custom char, it sometimes is replaced with a non full block from the vBar. Affected drivers: IOWarrior, CwLinux - On Solaris the mtc_s16209x driver fails to compile. Configure LCDproc to exclude this driver. - The lcdproc client currently ignores errors from the machine dependent functions. This may result in strange behaviour of the screens or core dumps.
