= KMSCON Release News = CHANGES WITH 2: (development release) * Build scripts were improved and simplified. They also allow much more control about the build process now. The source was split into several different libraries. * Added llog.h helper for logging in libraries. * Eloop was moved into separate library and supports more more use-cases now. It can be used as a standalone project. * Terminal emulator (vte.c) was improved a lot and can run vim now. * Console layer was rewritten and is now much faster and much more standards compliant. * Uterm monitor was added. The monitor uses udev and systemd-logind to watch the system for new seats and devices. This allows us to run on multiple seats simultaneously and being hotplug-capable. * Uterm vt layer was added. This simply wraps the older VT layer so we can switch to different VT systems on-the-fly. * New uterm video backends: The fbdev backend is now fully functional kmscon can run on any fbdev device now. Furthermore, the dumb backend was added which is simply an unaccelerated DRM backend that should work even without EGL, GL, gbm, etc. * New 2D rendering API. In case OpenGL is not available, we now allow blitting images into the framebuffer. This is used for fbdev and dumb video devices. * Font renderer now depends on pango. This is is needed only until I get the time to rewrite the freetype backend. But for now we depend on pango so have full font support. * lots of small fixes CHANGES WITH 1: (development release) * First kmscon release. For testing purposes only. Includes a rendering pipeline and a very rundimentary terminal emulator.
