Please report all problems at bugzilla.xfce.org. Since there is only one panel plugin left it was renamed from "Battery Indicator Plugin" to "Power Manager Plugin", which is more fitting as it doesn't merely show the battery status. Xfce4-power-manager does not rely on special device icons anymore that illustrate the load-status. Instead, the load-status is now drawn with cairo on top of normal device icons that follow the naming of the Adwaita icon-theme. Other changes: - Fix crash with slider on 32bit systems (Bug #11076) - Fix version number output on the commandline - Remove unused code - Add dedicated icons for the keyboard brightness notifications - Various icon improvements - Reorder parts of the settings dialog Translation updates: Bulgarian (bg), Dutch (Flemish) (nl), French (fr), German (de), Italian (it), Malay (ms), Polish (pl), Portuguese (Brazilian) (pt_BR), Spanish (Castilian) (es). 1.3.1 ===== [Please note that this is a development release.] Development release of xfce4-power-manager. Please report all problems at bugzilla.xfce.org. Xfce4-power-manager has changed how the xfce4-pm-helper application is used. Now the pm-helper is called by pkexec (provided by polkit), which means for users of xfpm that have UPower 0.99 installed and aren't using LoginD everything will work as before. In 1.3.0 options in the settings dialogs were unavailable because xfpm was still looking for the old UPower authorization rules which get uninstalled on the upgrade to UPower 0.99. Simon Steinbeiss and Harald Judt have contributed many improvements to the power manager settings dialog. Harald also added a minimum xfconf value setting for the brightness slider so that users whose display goes completely dark at 0 can exclude that value if they desire. The battery plugin can now be built as an LXDE plugin (Bug 10929). The brightness plugin has been merged into the battery indicator plugin. This allows for the removal of duplicated code, puts all those settings in one plugin, and allows us to easily provide that functionality to LXDE. The disk spin down feature was removed. The default settings for it actually had it configured so that it would never work, it was using the old UDisks 1 API, and would be useless for SSD drives and non-Linux users. Other Changes: - Simon P fixed a memory corruption crash (Bug 11018). - OnlyShowIn was changed to a NotShowIn for the .desktop files (Bug 11009) - Selecting a device in the plugin brings up the details in the settings dialog. - Improve strings in devices tab and add percentage (Bug #6652) - Fork before gtk/dbus init - Andrzej Added support for multi-row panel layouts for the plugin - Restore screen power after sleep (Bug 10535) - Samuli Suominen fixed suspend/hibernate with UPower 0.9.23 (Bug 10931) - Carl Simonson added a notification popup when changing keyboard brightness - Minumum UPower requirement was lowere to 0.9.7 to support FreeBSD - Devices tab flickers on update (Bug 10937) - Improve lid-action strings (Bug #6515) - Carl Simonson added a reasonable step value for keyboard brightness - Let xfpm control X11's screensaver extension Translation updates: Arabic (ar), Asturian (ast), Bulgarian (bg), Chinese (Taiwan) (zh_TW), Croatian (hr), Dutch (Flemish) (nl), English (Australia) (en_AU), French (fr), German (de), Hungarian (hu), Indonesian (id), Italian (it), Japanese (ja), Korean (ko), Malay (ms), Norwegian Bokmål (nb), Polish (pl), Portuguese (pt), Portuguese (Brazilian) (pt_BR), Russian (ru), Swedish (sv), Spanish (Castilian) (es), Thai (th), Ukrainian (uk). 1.3.0 ===== [Please note that this is a development release.] Development release of xfce4-power-manager. Please report all problems at bugzilla.xfce.org. This release has a large number of changes contributed by many developers and translators. One of the most noticable changes to xfpm is a new panel plugin to monitor battery and device charge levels which replaces the trayicon. If anyone outside of Xfce was using xfce4-power-manager in a different panel, such as LXDE, and wants xfpm to continue to work there, request it in bugzilla and we'll work on it. The settings dialog has been completely restructured for better oversight. Additionally, xfce4-power-information, a stand-alone application has now been embedded inside the settings dialog. A new version of Upower, 0.99.0, breaks it's API compability and xfpm required quite a bit of work to provide the same functionality as previous versions of Upower. Concurrently, several developers added support for systemd-logind in xfpm. Xfce4-power-manager added a xfce4-pm-helper application to suspend/hibernate on systems using upower 0.99.0 and higher. Jannis Pohlmann removed custom OSD brightness popup code and it now uses libnotify so they can appear with any installed notification daemon. Simon Steinbeiss created new icons for xfpm (based on the Adwaita icon-theme) covering all the different device types supported as well as all their individual states. Sonal Santan added support for keyboard backlight control. This feature is useful when the firmware does not handle the keyboard brightness control automatically. - Fix brightness level from glong to gint32 to match RandR property, patch written by Martin Matuska. - Fix incorrect check for suspend permissions (bug #8438), patch written by Lionel Le Folgoc - Port xfpm to libupower-glib / add support for upower-0.99.0 API patch written by Stefan Seyfried - Add shutdown/reboot functionality for systemd (Bug 10167) patch written by Andreas Müller and Guido Berhoerster - Don't allow systemd to handle suspend/hibernate events patch written by Mikhail Efremov - Add support for logind suspend/resume (Bug 9963) - Allow individual inhibition of systemd events patch written by Sean Davis - Get rid of XfpmDeviceState and XfpmDeviceType patch written by Stefan Seyfried - xfpm_backlight_button_pressed_cb: fix popup display patch written by Stefan Seyfried - Fix empty systray icon in some panels on battery removal and addition, patch written by Henry Gebhardt - Display power percentage in the device details, patch written by Pascal de Bruijn - Add current percentage of batteries to device details, patch written by Stefan Seyfried - do not show an icon for HID devices, patch written by Stefan Seyfried - Fix status icon for devices other than battery and ups (Bug 8188) patch written by Daniel Schubert and Dean Montgomery - Add support for keyboard backlight control (Bug 10470) patch written by Sonal Santan - Don't call g_thread_init on newer versions of glib. - Fix typo in xfpm-power.c, patch written by Benjamin Kerensa - Fix typo in error message, patch written by Ian - Updates from the pre-4.8 panel registration method for panel plugins - Update xfce4-session lock-screen setting to by in sync with xfce4-session - Point to the online docs for xfpm's help - Fix uninitialized variables - Add a option for network manager sleep (Bug 10702) - Warn when no lock tool succeeded (Bug 6413) - Add support for suspend/hibernate via an xfce4-pm-helper since it was dropped in UPower 0.99.
