Wicd 1.6.0 Branch
|
|
1.7.0b2:
|
|
Changes for Packagers:
|
|
- Wicd now supports a -k option, which should be run by the init script
|
|
when the daemon is stopped to release the DHCP lease but should not
|
|
be run on a restart of the daemon.
|
|
- The ability has been added to split Wicd's components into multiple
|
|
directories. Use --gtk, --cli, --curses, and --daemon to specify
|
|
the locations of the respective components.
|
|
- The preferred way to run the GTK UI is now to use wicd-gtk, not
|
|
wicd-client. wicd-gtk is a new addition to 1.7 that will never
|
|
run wicd-curses. wicd-client will automatically decide to run
|
|
wicd-curses if there is no X session available.
|
|
|
|
Major Changes:
|
|
- Connection information is available by right clicking the tray icon
|
|

|
|
- urwid 0.9.9 is now supported
|
|
- Added wicd-cli, a command line interface for use in scripts
|
|
- Global scripts are now passed parameters specifying the network

|

|
|
- ESSIDs made of numbers now work properly

|
|
- Added an option to automatically switch from a wireless network to a wired
