- Specfile fixes (#rh187489#)
(Chris Aillon) o More information in "Connection Information" dialog
(Robert Love) o Shorten time taken to sleep o Make applet icon wireless
strength levels a bit more realistic o Talk to named using DBUS rather
than spawning our own
- You need to add "-D" to the OPTIONS line in /etc/sysconfig/named
- You need to set named to start as a service on startup
DHCP server doesn't give us a gateway address #rh165698# o Fixes to the
applet (Robert Love) o Better caching of information in the applet
(Bill Moss) o Generate automatic suggested Ad-Hoc network name from
machine's hostname (Robert Love) o Update all network information on
successfull connect, not just authentication method
detection
- Add right-click menu to applet, can now "Pause/Resume" scanning through
it
- Fix DHCP Renew/Rebind timeouts
- Fix frequency cycling problem on some cards, even when scanning was off
- Play better with IPv6
- Don't send kernel version in DHCP packets, and ensure DHCP packets are at
least 300 bytes in length to work around broken router
- New DHCP options D-BUS API by Dan Reed
- Handle multiple domain search options in DHCP responses
- Hopefully fix double-default-route problem
- Write out valid resolv.conf when we exit
- Make multi-domain search options work
- Rework signal strength code to be WEXT conformant, if strength is still
wierd then its 95% surely a driver problem
- Fix annoying instances of suddenly dropping and reactivating a wireless
device (Cisco cards were worst offenders here)
- Fix some instances of NetworkManager not remembering your WEP key
- Fix some races between NetworkManager and NetworkManagerInfo where
NetworkManager wouldn't recognize changes in the allowed list
- Don't shove Ad-Hoc Access Point MAC addresses into GConf
- Fixes to DHCP code
- Link-Local (ZeroConf/Rendezvous) support
- Use bind in "caching-nameserver" mode to work around stupidity in glibc's
resolver library not recognizing resolv.conf changes
- #rh144818# Clean up the specfile (Patch from Matthias Saou)
- Ad-Hoc mode support with Link-Local addressing only (for now)
- Fixes for device activation race conditions
- Wireless scanning in separate thread
- Updates to link detection, DHCP code
- Remove NMLaunchHelper so we start up faster and don't block for a
connection. This means services that depend on the network may fail if
they start right after NM
- Make sure DHCP renew/rebinding works
