Hi, Xpra version 0.0.7.28 is now available, in source form here: http://xpra.org/src/ Or as binary packages here: http://winswitch.org/downloads/
This is a major update adding a number of significant enhancements: * much more efficient and backwards compatible network code, prevents a CPU bottleneck on the client * forwarding of system notifications, system bell and custom cursors * system tray menu to make it easier to change settings and disconnect * automatically resize Xdummy to match the client's screen size whenever it changes * PNG image compression support * JPEG and PNG compression are now optional, only available if the Python Imaging Library is installed * scale window icons before sending if they are too big * fixed keyboard mapping for OSX and MS Windows clients * compensate for line jitter causing keys to repeat * fixed cython warnings, unused variables, etc Since I failed to post announcements for the previous releases of Xpra (they were kind of bundled and implied in the winswitch announcements), here is a copy of the release notes for the past few releases: v0.0.7.27 (2011-09-20) * compatibility fix for python 2.4 (remove "with" statement) * slow down updates from windows that refresh continuously v0.0.7.26 (2011-09-20) * minor changes to support the Android client (work in progress) * allow keyboard shortcuts to be specified, default is meta+shift+F4 to quit (disconnects client) * clear modifiers when applying new keymaps to prevent timeouts * reduce context switching in the network read loop code * try harder to close connections cleanly * removed some unused code, fixed some old test code v0.0.7.25 (2011-08-31) * Proper keymap and modifiers support v0.0.7.24 (2011-08-15) * Use raw keycodes whenever possible, should fix keymapping issues for all Unix-like clients * Keyboard fixes for AltGr and special keys for non Unix-like clients v0.0.7.23-2 (2011-07-27) * More keymap fixes.. v0.0.7.23 (2011-07-20) * Try to use setxkbmap before xkbcomp to setup the matching keyboard layout * Handle keyval level (shifted keys) explicitly, should fix missing key mappings * More generic option for setting window titles * Exit if the server dies v0.0.7.22 (2011-06-02) * minor fixes: jpeg, man page, etc (...)
