- Added fixes for Gentoo bugs: #99568, #100032, #101235, #101352.
09 Aug 2005 * <spock@gentoo.org> * fbsplash-0.9.2-r4-2.6.13-rc6
- Updated the patch to apply cleanly against 2.6.13-rc6.
18 Jul 2005 * <spock@gentoo.org> * splashutils-1.1.9.8, splashutils-gentoo-0.1.12

- Fixed kernel command line parsing bug in splash_helper.
- Fixed command line parameter parsing in splash_helper.
- Fixed service listing in /sbin/splash-function.sh.
29 Jun 2005 * <spock@gentoo.org> * fbsplash-0.9.2-r4-2.6.13-rc1
- Fixed fb_set_cmap() and fb_set_user_cmap().
- Removed matroxfb's dependency on FB_TILEBLITTING (the driver doesn't
yet support tileblitting anyway, so it was kind of pointless and was
only preventing fbsplash from working properly).
16 May 2005 * <spock@gentoo.org> * fbsplash-0.9.2-r3-2.6.12-rc3
- Replaced the deprecated verify_area() call with access_ok().
Patch by Michal Rokos <michal(at)rokos.info>.
16 May 2005 * <spock@gentoo.org> * splashutils-1.1.9.6, splashutils-gentoo-0.1.10
- Merged MNG support code by Bernard Blackham <bernard(at)blackham.com.au>.
This is only a stub for now, but it means that full support for animations
will surely be coming in the next few revisions.
- Moved 'kdgraphics' from a compilation time option into a kernel command
line option.
- Changed the default silent splash tty on Gentoo to tty16. This should
allow us to avoid any conflicts with rc-scripts, consolefont, syslog-ng,
etc.
- Fixed a bug with the event device not being detected correctly.
- Fixed a few box rendering issues in 16bpp modes.
- Added the '--no8bpp' option to splash_geninitramfs.
- Added some new options to bootsplash2fbsplash.
- Added a new utility called 'splash_manager'. This new script can be
used for theme testing, setting, switching and screenshot taking.
- Released splashutils in two versions -- the traditional 'full' tarball
and a new 'lite' one, which includes only the core splashutils code.
All libraries have to be downloaded and unpacked manually into the
libs/ subdirectory. The 'lite' package should be a great bandwidth
and space saver for systems which already have the source code of the
libraries used in splashutils.
30 Apr 2005 * <spock@gentoo.org> * splashutils-1.1.9.5, splashutils-gentoo-0.1.9
- Fixed issues with 16bpp modes.
- Modified Makefile to allow a more verbose output and compilation
with user-provided CFLAGS.
- Added sanity checks for /dev/tty1.
- Added sanity checks for the kernel command line. Invalid settings
such as: splash=silent,theme:foo,CONSOLE=/dev/tty1,quiet should now
be detected automatically.
- Cleaned the code up a little bit. Moved alpha blending into
the put_pixel() function.
- Updated klibc to 1.0.8.
- Merged a PPC fix by Daniel Tarbuck <tarbuck(at)futurewest(dot)ca>.
28 Apr 2005 * <spock@gentoo.org> * fbsplash-0.9.2-r2-2.6.12-rc3
- Fixed a compilation warning that was displayed when the kernel was
being compiled with CONFIG_FB_SPLASH=n.
24 Apr 2005 * <spock@gentoo.org> * splashutils-1.1.9.4, splashutils-gentoo-0.1.8
- Fixed a few mistakes and typos in the docs.
- Made the core rendering code a little faster.
- Fixed the bootsplash2fbsplash scripts (Gentoo bug #85531).
- Splash scripts updates:
- ignore 'serial' exit code (to prevent automatic switches to
verbose mode when there is no apparent error)
- fixed Gentoo bugs #88461 and #87113
08 Apr 2005 * <spock@gentoo.org> * fbsplash-0.9.2-r1-2.6.11-rc1-bk5
- Fixed the patch by making con2fb_map visible outside of fbcon.c.
02 Apr 2005 * <spock@gentoo.org> * fbsplash-0.9.2-r1-2.6.11-rc1-bk5
- Added a fix for the buggy screenblanking with some configurations.
Patch provided by Peter Beutner in Gentoo bug #79131.
28 Mar 2005 * <spock@gentoo.org> * splashutils-1.1.9.3, splashutils-gentoo-0.1.7
- Updated the documentation to reflect the changes in the 1.1.9 series.
- Fixed the bug with F2 not working in silent mode.
- Added support for font styles (bold, italic, underline).
- Added support for text hotspot positioning.
- Added support for text evaluation (only the $progress variable is supported,
for now).
- $progress is now a part of the main boot message by default.
21 Mar 2005 * <spock@gentoo.org> * splashutils-1.1.9.2, splashutils-
gentoo-0.1.6, miscsplashutils-0.1.3
A bugfix release of splashutils. Fixed bugs:
- #85293 - compilation problems on amd64
- #85418 - cache directory not found
- #85565 - issues related to /usr and /var being separate partitions
- 8bpp modes fix (thanks to Bernard Blackham <bernard(at)blackham.com.au>)
Additionally, the following new features have been implemented:
- Support for switching between verbose and silent with F2.
In order to take advantage of this new feature, one has to use a kernel
compiled with the user event interface enabled (CONFIG_INPUT_EVDEV=y).
- Speed improvements for solid color boxes (thanks to Bernard Blackham).
- Support for compiling splashutils without any dependencies on fbsplash
(ie. silent mode only).
21 Mar 2005 * <spock@gentoo.org> * fbsplash-0.9.2-2.6.12-rc1
Updated the patch so that it can be applied cleanly against 2.6.12-rc1.
09 Mar 2005 * <spock@gentoo.org> * fbsplash-0.9.2-2.6.11,
fbsplash-0.9.2-2.6.11-bk3
The previous patch got renamed to 'fbsplash-0.9.2-2.6.11-bk3' because
it was made against that version of the kernel, and not 2.6.11. A new
patch against 2.6.11 has been made.
09 Mar 2005 * <spock@gentoo.org> * splashutils-1.1.9.1
- Splash protocol v1 support is back in place. That means you can use
splashutils-1.1.9.1 with all currently available versions of fbsplash.
Still, fbsplash 0.9.2 is the recommended version.
- Improved the fade-in code for truecolor modes. The fading should be much
more smooth now.
07 Mar 2005 * <spock@gentoo.org> * splashutils-1.1.9, splashutils-gentoo-0.1.5
Major changes in the architecture and in the code. A list of
more important ones:
- The splash daemon mode - makes things a lot faster and cleaner. This
will be the preferred way of using splashutils for the silent mode
from now on. The old run-paint-exit, run-paint-exit, ... scheme will
still be supported, but all new features will be going into the daemon.
- The silent mode has it's own TTY. By default - tty8. This can be changed
with the 'tty:<n>' kernel command line splash= parameter.
- Support for splash protocol v2. This means that this version of
splashutils will work with fbsplash-0.9.2.
- Initial support for graphical effects. For now, this is the initial
'fade-in'. Try adding 'fadein' to the kernel command line splash=
parameter.
- Support for switching between silent and verbose. Silent -> verbose
switch can be done with F2 or the standard Ctrl+Alt+F1 combination.
Verbose -> silent can be done only with Ctrl+Alt+F<n> (for now),
where n depends on the tty the user has chosen at boot.
- Support for TrueType fonts in the daemon and in the splash_helper.
This can be turned off in the config.h file if it's not required.
- Support for the 'text' object. Thanks to the 'exec' flag the text
to be displayed can be generated on-the-fly. Yes, this means that
you can get fortunes on your verbose/silent screen, displayed in a
nice TTF font ;)
- Enhanced support for icons in the splashutils-gentoo package. The
service list is automatically and transparently computed and cached,
and exported to user scripts by the means of the splash_svclist_get()
function.
- Proper handling of the objects chain. This means that the items from
the config file are painted in the order in which they appear.
The previous version drew all the boxes first.
- Support for exporting the background buffer to a file. This can be
used to call an external app every time the silent screen is about
to be repainted. This feature is experimental at the moment, largely
untested and there's not much you can do with it right now (unless
you write your own programs to take advantage of it).
Consider the whole release a little experimental. Don't think of it as
of something you can just package into whatever format you use and drop
into your system.
I'm sorry for not including any real documentation in this version
-- it will be added in one of the next bugfix releases that will surely
follow. For now, let this changelog, splash_util -h, the Gentoo
initscripts from splashutils-gentoo and The Code Itself be your guides ;)
07 Mar 2005 * <spock@gentoo.org> * fbsplash-0.9.2-2.6.11
A new version of fbsplash with some architectural changes. All
mode-handling code has been moved to userspace. From now on, fbsplash
doesn't know whether the system is running in the silent or in the
verbose mode.
A new version of splashutils is necessary in order to use
fbsplash-0.9.2. With splashutils older than 1.1.9, things *WILL*
break.
Additionally, two bugs in fbsplash have been fixed:
- modeswitch not being detected correctly
- switching between fbsplash-enabled consoles with different
resolutions
The patch includes two additional fixes:
- don't flash the cursor when it's switched off
- don't update the palette then fbcon_set_palette is called
for vc's other than fg_console
13 Feb 2005 * <spock@gentoo.org> * fbsplash-0.9.1-r2-2.6.11-rc4
A bugfix release of fbsplash. Fixed issues:
- an oops when using fb drivers as modules
- empty character displayed on blanked consoles
27 Jan 2005 * <spock@gentoo.org> * splashutils-0.9.1, splashutils-gentoo-0.1.4
Added numerous new features and bugfixes:
- support for devfs device names (bug #75515)
- fixes for consolefont problems (bug #77122)
- a splash_geninitramfs fix (bug #68518)
- support for switching back to silent mode after receiving
user input for services such as dm-crypt
- support for theme-defined ttf fonts
- support for boot icons
- support for event-driven scripts
Note that some of these are undocumented and usused at this point.
Please wait for baselayout updates (bug #78492) and/or new themes
to see them in action.
20 Jan 2005 * <spock@gentoo.org> * fbsplash-0.9.1-r1-2.6.10,
fbsplash-0.9.1-r1-2.6.11-rc1-bk8
OK, this time we've got one version of fbsplash and patches made
against two different versions of the kernel. One is, traditionally,
a diff against the latest -bk version. The other one is intended
for gentoo-dev-sources. It's more an exception than a rule, so don't
count on getting each new version of fbsplash backported to N last
versions of the kernel ;)
Changes summary:
- A fix for bug #78210 aka "saving the current cmap, fixing the
pseudo palette and hoping not to break anything else" ;) Have
a look at the ChangeSet summary in the patch for a precise
description of the introduced changes.
- A fix for a stupid bug that made it impossible to have different
fbsplash themes on different virtual consoles.
15 Jan 2005 * <spock@gentoo.org> * fbsplash-0.9.1-2.6.11-rc1
- Removed some unused code (fbsplash_putc()).
11 Dec 2004 * <spock@gentoo.org> * fbsplash-0.9.1-2.6.10-rc3-bk6
- Fixed text scrolling in silent mode.
- Fixed color corruption problems in DIRECTCOLOR modes. Fbsplash
should work much better with radeonfb now :) Special thanks for
this fix go to Imago <imago(at)devinity(dot)de>.
22 Nov 2004 * <spock@gentoo.org> * fbsplash-0.9-r8-2.6.10-rc2-bk7
Updated fbsplash to patch cleanly against the latest kernel version.
Switching from silent to verbose is kind of broken - it won't show you
any messages that were printed while the screen was in the silent mode.
This will be fixed ASAP.
28 Oct 2004 * <spock@gentoo.org> * fbsplash-0.9-r8.2.6.10-rc1
Updated fbsplash to patch cleanly against 2.6.10-rc1. Only bit-blitting
is supported (for now), so don't enable tile-blitting if you want fbsplash
to work properly.
21 Oct 2004 * <spock@gentoo.org> * fbsplash-0.9-r8-2.6.9
Updated fbsplash to patch cleanly against 2.6.9. Fixed a little bug that
could affect 16bpp modes on big-endian systems.
01 Oct 2004 * <spock@gentoo.org> * fbsplash-0.9-r8-2.6.9-rc3
Updated fbsplash to patch cleanly against 2.6.9-rc3.
27 Sep 2004 * <spock@gentoo.org> * splashutils-0.9-pre10, splashutils-
gentoo-0.1.2
- Fixed bug #64068
- Fixed two small bugs in progress bar rendering code. Thanks to
Christian Hesse for spotting these.
- Updated klibc and libpng, splashutils should compile cleanly with 2.6.9-rc2
now.
26 Sep 2004 * <spock@gentoo.org> * fbsplash-0.9-r8-2.6.9-rc2
Made fbsplash work on 2.6.9-rc2, possibly fixing a bug with random characters
being displayed in the empty spaces of the screen along the way.
07 Sep 2004 * <spock@gentoo.org> * fbsplash-0.9-r8-2.6.9-rc1
Fixed problems with modes in which line_length != xres * bytes_per_pixel
07 Sep 2004 * <spock@gentoo.org> * splashutils-0.9-pre09
- Added simple dithering for 15/16bpp modes
- Updated klibc to 0.172
- Fixed compilation issues on amd64 systems. Special thanks to
Christian Roessner for his help on making splashutils work on amd64.
- Added a few little fixes that should make fbsplash switch to verbose
when using swsusp (it was automatically switched off because of an
error in previous versions of splashutils)
05 Sep 2004 * <spock@gentoo.org> * splashutils-0.9-pre08, splashutils-
gentoo-0.1.1
Added the splash_resize script. Fixed the makefiles to allow compilation
on non-x86 arches. Fixed the binaries and scripts to make it possible to
use splashutils when /usr is a separate partition. Updated the docs.
Added some additional error messages to splashutils. Made splashutils
respect the fb_fix.line_length value.
27 Aug 2004 * <spock@gentoo.org> * fbsplash-0.9-r7-2.6.8.1
Fixed a bug that caused a deadlock when resuming the system
with swsusp and silent fbsplash.
23 Aug 2004 * <spock@gentoo.org> * fbsplash-0.9-r6-2.6.8.1
Fixed a minor bug that caused a bunch of badness trackebacks to appear
when setting the theme on a console with active fbsplash.
21 Aug 2004 * <spock@gentoo.org> * splashutils-0.9-pre07
A few minor bugfixes, mainly related to the placement of the progress bar
in modes which make use of ypanning.
17 Aug 2004 * <spock@gentoo.org> * splashutils-0.9-pre06,
splashutils-0.9-pre06-gentoo
Updated splashutils-0.9-[gentoo] to fix a few glitches - bad colors parsing
in some special cases, bad picture/font rendering on systems which use
panning (eg. vesafb with ypan/ywrap).
12 Aug 2004 * <spock@gentoo.org> * splashutils-0.9-pre05,
splashutils-0.9-pre05-gentoo
Fixed a bunch of minor bugs, mostly related to silent splash. Added some
checks to protect users from broken config files (invalid silentpic path).
06 Aug 2004 * <spock@gentoo.org> * fbsplash-0.9-r5-2.6.8-rc3
Added additional info != NULL checks. This should remedy any problems
caused by calling fbsplash ioctls when fbcon isn't really active.
06 Aug 2004 * <spock@gentoo.org> * splashutils-0.9-pre04-gentoo-r1
It turned out that I've forgotten to include some parts of the updated
rc-scripts in the last ebuild, which made progress-bar completely
inoperational. This release fixes these problems.
06 Aug 2004 * <spock@gentoo.org> * fbsplash-0.9-r4-2.6.8-rc3
Changed the fbsplash_mode logic a bit. Verbose is now the default option.
Helper failure on 'init' causes a drop to verbose.

03 Aug 2004 * <spock@gentoo.org> * fbsplash-0.9-r2-2.6.8-rc1,
splashutils-0.9-pre03
Fixed a little bug in getcfg handling code, moved sysfs mounting to
userspace. Added a lot of docs to splashutils and updated the makefile to

25 Jul 2004 * <spock@gentoo.org> * fbsplash-0.9-r1-2.6.8-rc1,
splashutils-0.9-pre02
New ioctl interface, new /dev/misc/fbsplash device. The /proc interface is
now gone. Added a few fixes - a modechange notifier, better handling of the
silent mode, and new features - reading splash state/config for a virtual
console. Updated the docs. The modechange notifier should prevent lockups
when using fbset on a fbsplash-enabled console. Also tested fbsplash with
swsusp - it appears to be working correctly.
