Hi all!
SXMO 1.3.0 has been released and is available in postmarketOS. This
release features some important fixes, such as for incoming calls during
suspension and a screenlock that now actually powers of the display and
saves battery life (thanks to ~trbl for the much needed hint here)
This release improves usability with dmenu now reacting not on touch,
but on release of touch, which makes a big difference; thanks to
tetrakist for this! Furthermore, most menus now have icons and a more
consistent font.
You can upgrade with a simple apk update && apk upgrade . Make sure you
reboot your device afterwards, as we have have a new init script that
enables user access to certain devices and kernel parameters, rather
than relying on setsuid scripts.
Please report any problems, especially regressions, that may have
arisen.
Condensed Changelog:
sxmo-dmenu:
* Applied the listfullwidth patch by Alex Cole (upstream) so the prompt
no longer indents the list and we have a better use of our scarce
display width
* Applied the xresources patch so we get font settings from Xresoruces
* Hiltjo posthuma & Quentin Rameau - Merged various changes from upstream dmenu 5.0
* tetrakist - Perform menu actions on ButtonRelease event rather than ButtonPress.
sxmo-utils:
* Anjandev Momi & Maarten van Gompel - Added a common script
sxmo_common.sh that is included from multiple scripts and
sets common variables, ensures busybox versions are used
rather than others. #137
* Frank Oltmanns & Maarten van Gompel - Use 'install' in Makefiles
* Maarten van Gompel - Adding icons to menus and read font from Xresources
* Maarten van Gompel - Blank the screen then locking
* Maarten van Gompel - Reduce wifi reconnection time after deep sleep &
update status bar quicker after connection to wifi
* Maarten van Gompel - Increased verbosity in various scripts
* Maarten van Gompel - Wait for the modem a bit when it is not
immediately available yet (e.g. after crust wakeup) #156
* Maarten van Gompel - Added an option (extra notification) to discard an
incoming call #157
* Julian Samaroo - Sort notification menu
The following tickets should now be fixed:
* #156 - With introduction of eg25-manager, the modemmonitor stops when receiving calls
* #157 - There should be an option to end a call
* #158 - screenlock display off mode does not actually turns the screen off: burn-in problem
* #116 - Reliable incoming calls from crust
* #149 - Add icons to menus and status bar, using fonts
* #151 - Replace cp with install in Makefiles
* #137 - installing findutils breaks userscripts
* #128 - Use file permissions instead of setuid
* #141 - Fixed rotate gesture
