Version 0.99.3 of the multi-purpose performance tuning / hardware configuration tool 'Powertweak' has been released.
You can find tarballs at http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=253 RPMs/Debs will follow soon.
regards,
Dave.
Release notes follow: v0.99.3 [Release 21. -- The 'voon' release ]
- Bugfixes: - Daemon now handles >1 HUP. - Daemon applies settings on getting a HUP. - SMART code doesn't keep device fd open anymore. - Make install no longer overwrites existing config files. - CDROM backend now respects min/max settings in /proc - CPU backend now handles SMP boxes properly. - CPU backend handles steppings correctly. - Close open fds lying around at daemon creation time (Debian bug 111840)
- New Features: - Tweaks that have changed value since the daemon has loaded now reflect their current state in the UIs. - Subtrees are now sorted alphabetically in UIs. - Powerdown joystick port option for ymf744b sound card. - Daemon --no-info option to skip `info' tweaks. - Pentium III & AMD Athlon XML added. - Informational MTRR backend added.
- Architectural changes: - CPU backend now only does CPU identification once at init time, not every time a tweak is allocated. End result : Lower backend memory usage. - All backends had destructors auditted & cleaned up. - Addition of GetValueRaw() method to tweak struct meant backend init paths got much cleaner. - Removal of lots of useless/old/duplicated code. - Tweak allocation methods changed to accept tweaktype argument. - Standarise some XML tags between backends. - powertweakd now becomes a daemon before loading tweaks.
