Comments (0) Trackbacks (0) new develrelease: grml 0.9-6After uploading grml64 I also uploaded a new develrelease of grml (the 32bit version ;-)) for beta-testers and developers. So, what's new? Read yourself: This release is a very special one for me. There are many updates, fixes, addons - I could remove most of the release-stoppers (http://bts.grml.org/release-stoppers). From my POV we are pretty close to grml 1.0-rc1 now. But due to several updates it needs heavy testing of course. So if you want to help us please test this release and report *anything* you find and think should be fixed for grml 1.0! Main changelog: =============== * update of kernel 2.6.20-grml, now based on 2.6.20.3 You're missing a feature/module/...? Report! * grml-terminalserver: big improvements like better module loading and switch to atftpd (thanks gebi) - give it a try! * grml2hd: added grml-setservices (interface for basic configuration of system startup/shutdown via /etc/runlevel.conf), improved grub code, some minor stuff... * added bootoption 'qemu', currently it does nothing else than copying /etc/X11/xorg.conf.example to /etc/X11/xorg.conf (if you have further ideas please inform me) * grml-autoconfig: dropped userspace/powernowd stuff in cpufrequeny scaling in favour of the ondemand-governor. If you notice any problems with powermanagement on your laptop please let me know. * news from grml-scripts: - added dirvish-setup: a simple script for setting up a basic configuration for backup software dirvish. - grml-setlang: do not set $TZ anymore, we want to handle it via /etc/timezone instead of /etc/default/locale; notice: the timezone configuration has been documented detailed at http://grml.org/faq/#timezone and within 'grml-tips timezone' Questions? Problems? Report! - integrated grml-quickconfig within zsh-login. grml-quickconfig has been contributed by Michael Schierl - thanks! [Needs some more tweaking though...] - added iso-term (wrapper script to run x-terminal-emulator in iso885915 mode). - added alignmargins (adjust the margins and the position of the printed contents on the paper) * /etc/zsh/zshrc: added aliases for better iso<->utf handling (term2iso, term2utf, utf2iso, iso2utf), big update of swspeak alias, added function ytdl (download video from youtube), and tons of other fixes, updates, additions...
