Refactored networking.py to not have to create a new wnettools interface every time a method gets called. Now it reuses the same one and makes changes to the iface name/driver as needed.
Refactored a few methods in wnettools.py to be organized more logically and reduce external program calls.
In experimental branch, added a few methods to networking/wnettools that can be used for enabling/disabling interfaces, as well as unloading/loading the driver associated with an interface.
Added a check for mii-tool/ethtool that gets run when wicd starts, so it can decide which to use to check for a wired connection.
Added a check for ip, to decide how to flush the routing tables.
Rewrote some of the DHCP client checking code.
Added a method (that's currently unused) to release a dhcp lease for each of the supported clients.
Added check when DHCP is run to determine what DHCP clients are available.
Fixed bug where sometimes wicd wouldn't reconnect automatically when a wired connection was lost.
Cleaned up a couple of comments.
Cleaned up formatting in gui.py.
Made glade template for preferences dialog and rewrote gui.py to use it instead of creating it explictly in the code.
Fixed a bunch indentation/whitespace problems.
Cleaned up a ton of formatting in daemon.py
Fixed a wired autoconnect bug.
Rewrote part of the connection monitoring code, further minimizing the number of external program calls, as well as number of dbus calls.
Added StatusInformation methods to daemon.py, to allow external apps to poll for the current connection status without making several dbus calls.
Fixed bad function call to GetDBMSignalStrength in daemon.py.
Added checks to the network entry settings menu to make sure that all the settings are valid.
Fixed global dns being set to True whenever static IP address were enabled for wireless networks.
Fixed the wired autoconnect profile chooser, which was badly broken.
Added a check to GetPluggedIn() that makes sure that the wired interface is up before checking. If it's not, it tries to put it up. This is necessary because ethtool doesn't make this check for us, as mii-tool did.
- Reworked GUI: Moved script button next to connect button, reduced size of both buttons, moved advanced settings from an expander to a dialog and put an advanced settings button next to scripts/connect buttons.
- When a wireless network has encryption enabled, "Secured" will no longer show up in the info for the network unless the encryption type can't be determined.
- Added support for detecting kill switch status (thanks to webograph for the inital patch).
- Reduced the number of calls to iwconfig during connection status updates (it is only called once per update now), which should lower cpu usage.
- Moved Autoreconnect methods from the wireless dbus service to the daemon dbus service.
- Added "Validating Authentication" status message during wireless connection process.
- Added support for disabling monitoring of connection status when computer is suspended, which gets rid of some error messages, eliminates occasional suspension failure, and reduces the odds that wicd will auto connect to a wireless network when a wired network is available. (Right now this feature is disabled, as it requires a script in /etc/acpi/suspend.d/, which can't be included with the current SVN layout.)
The output of dhclient is now parsed by wicd and used to determine why the connection failed.
All the wpa_supplicant conf files will now generate a ctrl_interface, so that they can be accessed by wpa_cli. wpa_cli now is used by wicd to attempt to determine is wpa_supplicant authentication was successful. This is still experimental, and might have to be tweaked to work properly.
If wicd.py is started and the daemon isn't present, it will autolaunch it by calling launchdaemon.sh, instead of asking the user to start the daemon manually.
Cleaned up some comments, formatting, etc.
Probably a couple of other little bug fixes I'm forgetting.
Possibly fixed problems with scripts not running when they should and/or leaving zombies.
Slightly reworked the GUI to make the new script system look nicer.
Removed the ability to set script information through built in daemon functions, it now has to be done by directly editing configuration files (which require root access to read/write).
Specify which network is being connected to in both the tray tooltip and gui statusbar
Clean up code in wicd.py.
Refactor Edgy/DapperTrayIcon class names to something less Ubuntu-specific.
Fix typo in EggTrayIcon that would keep gui from opening.
Stopped the gui status bar from updating while the gui is closed, which reduces CPU usage and should hopefully fix problems with hibernation not working while wicd was running.
