NEWS: gdm-2.8.0.5
========================================
2.8.0.5 stuff:
- gdmflexiserver supports --startnew option so that
gdmflexiserver can be told to not pop-up the dialog
asking if the user wants to start a current session.
With this option it just always starts a new session.
This allows running gdmflexiserver from the
screensaver, where the pop-up can't be interacted
with due to the nature of the screensaver.
(Brian Cameron)
- Now gdmflexiserver supports gnome-screensaver if
available, then defaults to xscreensaver.
(William Jon McCann)
- Bug corrected in dwellmouselistener which caused it
to always fail to recognize gestures. (Brian
Cameron)
- Added warning message if gdmgreeter theme supports
face browser but does not have pam-message defined.
(Brian Cameron)
- gdmsetup and gdmphotosetup now only map right/left
mouse buttons to button1 when running under GDM.
When running as user, honor user defaults.
(Brian Cameron)
- XdmcpFill() failure is now logged as debug, since
this happens when the client disconnects from the
XDMCP server before the session was setup.
(Bastien Nocera)
- gdmsetup fixed so when user modifies Include/Exclude
list, the automatic/timed dropdown lists are updated
immediately instead of having to stop and restart
gdmsetup to see the users in the list.
- Correct illegal reference to build directory in
installed .la files. (Stanislav Brabec)
- Removed test that causes needless syslog() message
on Solaris when auditing is turned off. New docs
explaining how to setup autologin on Solaris.

NEWS: gnome-games-2.13.1
========================================
gnome-games 2.13.1
==================
This is the first release of the 2.13 development series. A lot has
changed and many bugs can be expected.
Big issues:
gnome-stones has been removed. Serious questions have been raised
about the Copyright status of some of the code gnome-stones was based
on and also some of the levels used. Given the earlier sound-effects
problems and the general lack of maintenance of the game the best
course of action appears to be euthanasia.
Both Gnometris and Ataxx have new drawing-engines based on the Cairo
graphics library. The old themes are no longer usable (although this
may change in the future depending on development of the librsvg
library) and in the case of Ataxx there is only one theme. In fact,
using the theme selector in Ataxx is likely to cause a crash - for the
moment, don't use it. The other bug you should not report is that the
graphics for Gnometris suck. I know, the current code is mostly proof
of principle and will be improved.
There is a new high scores API. The games Mines, Five or More,
Gnometris and Same GNOME use it. This change should be backwards
compatible and, except for a change in the dialog, invisible.
Security: Because of the high scores change the previously mentioned
games do NOT drop their setgid privileges as they used to. If someone
accessing the games group is a serious issue then it is recommended
that you disable the setgid option. See the "Security Issues" section
of the README file, but note that the first item in the "mitigating
factors" doesn't apply for these games.
General News:
- You can now disable and enable the compilation of games. See the
README file, search for "enable".
- Compilation on Windows and Mac OS X stand a good chance of working,
I have not tested this personally.
- The supplied spec file is now up to date thanks to Paul Smith.
- You can now use Apple's Bonjour library for Zeroconf support instead of
Howl. Avahi is unfortunately not yet supported.
- Numerous patches to fix compilation with various combinations of options.
Aisleriot:
- New game: Gaps from Zachary Keene. It is similar to the "Blue" demo game
that came with the curses distribution.
- The game Block Ten has been reinstated. It was removed with a comment
indicating it didn't work. It seems to work fine for us, if you find out
otherwise please tell us.
- Freecell hint code now runs in a separate thread so we get good hints with
a good response time.
- Bug fixes for Spiderette, Kansas, Gypsy and Straight Up.
Ataxx:
- Completely new drawing engine. Theme changing doesn't work. See above
for details.
Blackjack:
- There is now an option to automatically reject insurance.
Gnometris:
- Graphics engine rewrite inspired by Paolo Borelli's code. See above
for details and caveats. Note that writing new themes is simple and
encouraged.
Nibbles:
- New graphics from Aur�lio A. Heckert
Tali:
- Rather than using a blank die to indicate a die that will be rolled,
the entire die acts like a toggle button in a toolbar. In some themes
this is a little subtle.
