     -- Colin Watson <email address hidden>   Thu, 05 May 2011 12:38:06 +0100
  • casper (1.265) natty; urgency=low
    
      * scripts/casper-bottom/30accessibility && ubiquity-hooks/30accessibility:
        - Use gsettings to adjust yelp caret navigation, as properly fixed in
          yelp 3.0.1
      * ubiquity-hooks/30accessibility: Fix the gset function to set settings for
        the target username, and not the username of the live user

  • casper (1.264) natty; urgency=low
    
      * scripts/casper-bottom/30accessibility && ubiquity-hooks/30accessibility:
        - Enable yelp carrot navigation by default in the moderate visual
          impairment, blindness, and Braille profiles, thanks to Attila Hammer
          for the patch (LP: #752503)
     -- Luke Yelavich <email address hidden>   Thu, 07 Apr 2011 10:17:52 +1000
  • casper (1.263) natty; urgency=low
    
      [ Evan Dandrea ]
      * Suppress Log Out item in the live session (LP: #750140).
    
      [ Martin Pitt ]
      * scripts/casper-helpers, find_cow_device(): Do not ever probe floppy
        devices. There are lots of computers which still have a floppy controller
        (and thus a /dev/fd0), but no actual floppy. Trying to send anything to
        /dev/fd0 will result in very long timeouts. Here this causes booting the
        live CD to take more than 30 minutes. (See also LP #539515 for the
        corresponding bug in udev/udisks). (LP: #739774)
     -- Martin Pitt <email address hidden>   Mon, 04 Apr 2011 16:12:34 +0200
  • casper (1.262) natty; urgency=low
    
      * scripts/casper-bottom/30accessibility:
        - Don't blindly assume that there are no orca config files/directories in
          the created user's home directory. A derivative may have placed something
          in /etc/skel as part of the live filesystem, and we shouldn't be
          clobbering it, thanks to Attila Hammer for the pointer (LP: #744227)
     -- Luke Yelavich <email address hidden>   Mon, 04 Apr 2011 17:32:40 +1000
  • casper (1.261) natty; urgency=low
    
      * scripts/casper-bottom/30accessibility && ubiquity-hooks/30accessibility:
        - Also use classic GNOME for the "motor difficulties, pointing devices"
          profile, due to issues with on-screen keyboards and unity search
     -- Luke Yelavich <email address hidden>   Mon, 04 Apr 2011 16:15:59 +1000
  • casper (1.260) natty; urgency=low
    
      [ Colin Watson ]
      * Force apt-cdrom's mount point to /cdrom (LP: #723357).  I've left the
        /media/cdrom symlink introduced in 1.259 in place anyway, as it's
        harmless on the live CD and may save some effort elsewhere.
    
      [ Luke Yelavich ]
      * scripts/casper-bottom/30accessibility && ubiquity-hooks/30accessibility:
        - Set the default session to classic GNOME for moderate visual
          impairement, blindness, and braille accessibility profiles (LP: #734659)
        - Fix a few dangling references to user-settings.py (LP: #744214)
        - Don't set /desktop/gnome/accessibility/keyboard/enable for vision
          related profiles (LP: #711131)
     -- Luke Yelavich <email address hidden>   Fri, 01 Apr 2011 16:13:07 +1100
  • casper (1.259) natty; urgency=low
    
      * scripts/casper-bottom/05mountpoints: Create a /media/cdrom -> /cdrom
        symlink, to work around apt's changed default mount point for Alpha-3.
        (LP: #727783)
     -- Martin Pitt <email address hidden>   Thu, 03 Mar 2011 11:52:38 +0100
  • casper (1.258) natty; urgency=low
    
      * scripts/casper-bottom/30accessibility && ubiquity-hooks/30accessibility:
        - Remove code that removes applets from the panel. Indicators are the
          way forward, and we have unity, which works differently.
        - Write orca configuration in json format
        - Set some settings in gsettings parallel to gconf, next cycle there
          will be a full migration to gsettings.
        - Do not change the default window manager setting, this will be done
          according to what is detected with unity/compiz et al.

  • casper (1.257) natty; urgency=low
    
      * Handle $cow_backing already being mounted elsewhere (LP: #683260).
     -- Evan Dandrea <email address hidden>   Fri, 11 Feb 2011 16:41:11 +0000
  • casper (1.256) natty; urgency=low
    
      * Add scripts/casper-bottom/49kubuntu_mobile_session to run Kubuntu
        mobile session

  • casper (1.255) natty; urgency=low
    
      [ Evan Dandrea ]
      * Don't disable the free space notifier if using persistent storage.
    
      [ Daniel Manrique ]
      * scripts/casper-bottom/23networking: Strip quotes from DNSDOMAIN as
        returned by ipconfig, and sanitize the domain entry to ensure the
        generated /etc/resolv.conf is formatted correctly (LP: #709364).
     -- Colin Watson <email address hidden>   Tue, 01 Feb 2011 11:05:13 +0000
  • casper (1.254) natty; urgency=low
    
      * More fixes to the USB update-initramfs shim (LP: #591207):
        - Make the shim a proper executable in
          /usr/share/casper/casper-update-initramfs and symlink to it if
          necessary at boot time, so that new versions of this shim are
          automatically installed when casper is upgraded.
        - $bootdir/initrd.img may exist when $bootdir/vmlinuz doesn't; for
          example, if we're running off a fresh live USB stick and the kernel
          hasn't yet been upgraded.

  • casper (1.253) natty; urgency=low
    
      * Don't try to process the initramfs and kernel if the real update-
        initramfs hasn't generated anything (LP: #557023).
     -- Evan Dandrea <email address hidden>   Wed, 05 Jan 2011 12:07:47 +0000
  • casper (1.252) natty; urgency=low
    
      * Cope with forthcoming console-setup changes: handle
        /etc/default/keyboard if present, and in that case preseed
        keyboard-configuration/* templates.
     -- Colin Watson <email address hidden>   Tue, 21 Dec 2010 16:44:54 +0000
  • casper (1.251) natty; urgency=low
    
      * scripts/casper-bottom/44pk_allow_ubuntu: Tweak the default PolicyKit
        policy to avoid dropping wireless connections when a user switches to
        another VT (LP: #656757)
     -- Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre <email address hidden>   Sat, 04 Dec 2010 13:11:23 +0000
  • casper (1.250) natty; urgency=low
    
      * Use LDLIBS rather than LDFLAGS for 'pkg-config --libs ply-boot-client',
        fixing link line ordering.
     -- Colin Watson <email address hidden>   Mon, 29 Nov 2010 13:28:17 +0000
  • casper (1.249) natty; urgency=low
    
      [ arky ]
      * Add universal access preferences taskbar icon in all accessibility
        profiles (LP: #621561).
    
      [ Serge Hallyn ]
      * change scripts/casper-helpers:try_mount() to not panic when regular
        mounts fail.  Instead, return an error code so the caller can decide.
        (LP: #624632)
    
      [ Evan Broder ]
      * scripts/casper: Check for uuid= command line parameter in addition to
        /conf/uuid.conf file in initrd. (LP: #671786)
    
      [ Colin Watson ]
      * Document new uuid= option in casper(7).

  • casper (1.248) maverick; urgency=low
    
      * ubiquity-hooks/30accessibility: Create .local/share subdirectory structure
        before copying files. Also copy orca files to ~/.local/share, instead
        ~/. Thanks to Attila Hammer for the patch. (LP: #650846)
