pommed v1.2: all your G4 laptops are belong to us
[The title of this post is an obvious reference pretty much everybody should get by now, if you don't get it, well, Google is your friend]
Here it is, pommed v1.2 brings a couple of bugfixes, enhancements, changes and support for more machines:
- The PowerBook5,5 has an ADB keyboard, not a USB one
- Added support for all the G4 laptops, please test and report any problem
- Tell DBus clients who is adjusting the keyboard backlight level so they can discard the notification if it’s not the user
- Added support for mouseemu
- Turn off the keyboard backlight when the lid is closed
- Rework the automatic keyboard backlight, the keyboard backlight off key now acts the same way it does on Mac OS X
- Configuration file for gpomme, ~/.gpommerc (timeout and theme)
- New theme for gpomme, KStyle, for KDE users
The configuration file syntax has changed for the PowerPC users, it’s a bit more simple now :-)
The DBus notification for the keyboard backlight brightness has changed too, so you need to kill and restart any running gpomme or wmpomme, and you must use the versions that ship with pommed v1.2.
Still missing: configuration GUI for gpomme. Patches welcome, I’m not that much into GUI stuff any more so I don’t really feel like doing it myself.
