New Features!! Why wait!!! + +Bugs: +1. Issue #220 on github: inxi misidentified XFCE as Gnome. This was a kind of core +issue, and pointed to some logic that needed updating, and some inadequate +assumptions made, and some too loose cascade of tests. Hopefully now xfce will +almost never get misidentified, and the other primary desktops ID'ed either from +$ENV or from xrop -root will be slightly more accurately identified as well. + +Note that this fix creates a possibility for obscure misconfigured desktops to +be ID'ed wrong, but in this case, that will be technically a bug for them, but +with the new fixes, that situation will be cleaner to handle internally in the +desktop ID logic. + +Also tightened the final Gnome fallback detection to not trigger a possible +false positive, it was testing for ^_GNOME but that is not adequate, because +some gnome programs will trigger these values in xprop -root even if GNOME +is not running. Should be safer now, hopefully no new bugs will be triggered +by these changes. + +Fixes: +1. Missed an indentation level for -y1, gcc alt should have been indented in +one more level, now it is. + +2. In disk vendors/family, didn't clean items starting with '/', this is +now corrected. Yes, some do, don't ask me why. Might be cases like: +Crucial/Micron maybe, where the first ID is grabbed, not sure. + + +Enhancements: +1. New Disk vendors, vendor IDs!!! The list never ends!!! We've finally found +infinity, and it is the unceasing wave of tiny and not so tiny disks and their +Ids. + +2. New feature: for -Aa, -Na/-na/-ia, -Ga, now will add the modules the kernel +could support if they were available on the Device-x lines of those items. +This was made an -a option because it really makes no sense, if it's a regular +option, users might think that for example an nvidia card had a nouveua driver +when it didn't, when in fact, all the kernel is saying is that it knows those +listed modules 'couid' be used or present. This corresponds to the Display: +item in -Ga, that lists 'alternate:' drivers that Xorg knows about that could +likewise be used, if they were on the system. + +In other words these are --admin options because otherwise users might get confused, +so this is one where you want to know the man explanation before you ask for it. + +It is useful however if you're not sure what your choices are for kernel modules. + +When the alternate driver is the same as the active driver, or if none is found, +it does not show the alternate: item to avoid spamming. + + +----------------------------------- +-- Harald Hope - Sun, 26 Jul 2020 19:10:21 -0700 + +===================================================================================== Version: 3.1.04 Patch: 00 Date: 2020-06-28 |
