This means you can change + parameter settings without restarting the X server. +- More reliable implementation of double click simulation using the up + button. The old implementation incorrectly generated a single click + instead of a double click for very short clicks of the up button. +- Configurable timeout (option EmulateMidButtonTime) for middle button + emulation. +- Better state machine for handling middle mouse button emulation. + * Clicks shorter than EmulateMidButtonTime are no longer lost. + * The middle button event is generated as soon as both the left and + the right buttons are pressed. The old code waited until the + timeout had passed before even checking if both buttons were + pressed. +- Makefile improvements: + * Made it possible to build synclient even if an X source tree is + not available. + * Added Makefile dependencies so that things get recompiled when a + header file is changed. + * synclient.c now includes synaptics.h instead of duplicating the + shared memory structure definition. +- The shared memory segment is properly removed when the X server + exits, so that synclient isn't fooled by a stale segment if the X + server is later restarted without SHMConfig activated. +- The code that tried to remove any old shared memory segment at + startup before creating the new segment didn't work. Therefore, X + server startup failed if the size of the shared segment had changed. + (Which was very annoying during development.) +- Updated the TODO, PARAMETERS and FEATURES files. + 09.06.02 - Version 0.11.1 - new packet format for Firmware 5.8 and others; solves problems with some |
