emifreq 0.17 - 09/20/2004

* polished: now the popup is positionned like a usual menu, not at the
	    pointer location like it used to be
* fixed: less debug spews for files not available
* fixed: a stupid crasher on weird cpufreq drivers introduced in
	 latest release

emifreq 0.16 - 09/14/2004

* fixed: the frequencies are sorted internally because not all drivers
	 sort them the same way. This should fixed the freq. displayed in
	 the tooltip and setting the frequencies.
* fixed: the way the preferences menu item is hidden when not needed
	 (thanks Mark for the bonobo trick)

emifreq 0.15 - 09/13/2004

* fixed: supports more drivers, and especially PPC. When avail_frequencies
	 is not there, we use the min and max scaling speeds. That may
	 prevent a crasher for ppl not having the avail_frequencies file.
* fixed: not having the temperature doesn't prevent execution: it's simply
	 not displayed, and so is the preferences dialog (since that's now
	 the only thing available)
* polish: removed the update interval from the preferences dialog
	  no other applet being part of the desktop do that. The setting is
	  still available through the gconf key off course
* polish: better vertical icon for performance governor

emifreq 0.14 - 09/13/2004

* fixed: a crasher when only one governor is available

emifreq 0.13 - 09/12/2004

* fixed: a really dumb error introduced in last release
* fixed: add a lot of debug spews to track down a crasher

emifreq 0.12 - 09/12/2004

* fixed: don't assume the performance governor is the default one

emifreq 0.11 - 09/11/2004

* fixed: find temperature location more reliably in /proc(works for any driver)
* fixed: don't print debug spews for missing scaling_setspeed, because it's
	 optional
* fixed: behaviour when governors are missing
* fixed: properly update the popup menu when needed
* fixed: fixed some dumb logic for adding entries in the menu 
* polish: a lot of code cleanups
* i18n: updated french translation

emifreq 0.10 - 09/10/2004

* fixed: launched the first update later
* i18n: added schema and preferences translation
* i18n: updated the french translation
* i18n: use an xml file for the bonobo ui stuff
* i18n: took some wording from gnome-applets package
* feature: preferences to not use the metric units system (so °F)

emifreq 0.9 - 07/27/2004

* i18n: marked all strings for translation
* i18n: added a french translation
* fixed: this was part of the FIXMEs that is the important hackish to the hell
	 thing about doing something like (gpointer) (int) which was ... well,
	 not very handsome.
* polish: fixed all FIXMEs, but there's still a question: what about telling
	  the user the daemon isn't launched at each start since it's also
	  checked each time the function is used. I've let the behaviour like
	  that to help ppl, but some ppl may become crazy :)

emifreq 0.8 - 07/27/2004

* daemon: added a check for cpufreq support
* daemon: use syslog (well, only for one thing, but it's a real cool daemon :D)
* rpm: added the daemon to the build not creating another rpm, because nobody will
       ever use this daemon w/o this applet
* polish: used ftok to generate the ipc key, with a fallback key
* polish: removed all compilation warnings

emifreq 0.7 - 07/26/2004

* added a N/A mode when the CPUFreq support has been removed during execution
  instead of crashing. Man, it's really being paranoid there. But tell me what
  do you think of it: could it replace the initial dialog that exits the applet
  if the CPUFreq support isn't there ?

emifreq 0.6 - 07/26/2004

* added the "read_only" gconf key to be able not to use the daemon, so
  you can't change the CPU speed, but only see the current CPU speed.
  But with this mode, the applet doesn't yell when the daemon isn't running.

emifreq 0.5 - 07/26/2004

* fixed the 2+ instances bug, because this is a shared lib exec
* fixed the bug related to a race condition with the daemon being started
  and stopped at really special times. Okay, this is paranoia.
* structural changes

emifreq 0.4 - 07/25/2004

* created a daemon that apply speed changes
* nice menu to change the speed in the applet. Removed all the cruft
  in the preferences because it's not a preference. Kept the corresponding
  stuff in the glade file for reference.
* error reporting everywhere it's necessary
* vertical panels:
	+ support more vertical panel sizes (being horizontal if possible)
	+ reload icons of the menu when the orientation change
* check for the daemon presence during init and when using the menu to give
  the user some chance to start the daemon
* faster build: the tests applications aren't build by default

emifreq 0.3 - 07/22/2004

* removed a bunch of memleaks
* added a backend tester app to detect potential memleaks
* added a GtkCombobox tester app
* added a Menu tester app
* added a popup menu when you left click on the applet to
  change the governor / frequency
