new develrelease: grml 1.0-1
Lots of development took place in the last weeks, finally we have a new develrelease. Quoting the main changelog for the new develreleases:
* featuring new stable kernel 2.6.22
See http://bts.grml.org/grml/issue216 for details regarding
development and progress.
* *no* further speakup patch inside the kernel, see
http://braille.uwo.ca/pipermail/speakup/2007-June/043478.html
for the reason
* update to libc 2.6; packages from Debian pool by 2007-07-13
* grml-x with multihead support using Xinerama ->
% grml-x -xinerama ...
Notice: this is limited to two monitors currently and I can test
it only on my intel based Samsung X20 laptop. Please report
feedback if you give it a try! Patches are welcome as well. :)
* some small improvements in bootsequence when running inside
VirtualBox
* grml2hd supports installation on LVM devices through
'LVM=/dev/mapper/target grml2hd'
* added bootoption startup=$script to startup the provided
$script/application instead of grml-quickconfig
* support LVM (logical volumes) in boot sequence:
- bootoption 'lvm' activates them
- no special bootoption just runs 'lvdisplay' and if something
can be found the user gets a hint to execute 'Start lvm2' to
set it up
- bootoption 'nolvm' completely disables the lvm code/checks
* Due to the emacs21 to emacs22 migration the following packages are not
yet available:
auctex: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=432206
python-mode: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=424973
Whereas the other removed packages "gnus gnus-bonus-el w3-el-e21
w3-url-e21" shouldn't be necessary with the new emacs version
AFAICS.
* the fluxbox theme (~/.fluxbox/styles/Sn33z) is broken with the
current version. Just delete it manually or choose another theme
from the fluxbox menu. Would be great if someone could take a
closer look at fixing this issue!
* the windows/ directory on the ISO has been renamed (currently
only for now) due to space problems....
* several bugfixes, updated configuration files,...
