(Updated Aug. 1, 2012, 8:54 a.m.) Review request for KDE Runtime and Oswald Buddenhagen. Description ------- Recent versions of GRUB2 introduce submenus which allow for nesting levels to appear (instead of the flat list in the past). This patch consists of two parts: the parsing part in KDM (bootman.c) and creating a menu structure from the parsed list in ksmserver (shutdowndlg.*) The parsing part produces a list like this: Gentoo GNU/Linux Advanced options for Gentoo GNU/Linux Advanced options for Gentoo GNU/Linux>Gentoo GNU/Linux, with Linux 3.4.4 Advanced options for Gentoo GNU/Linux>Gentoo GNU/Linux, with Linux 3.4.4 (recovery mode) Windows 7 (loader) (on /dev/sda2) ???? ????????? which is then converted into the menu structure. These full identifiers can be properly used with `grub2-reboot`. More info about submenus: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10720316 Also check the related bug. The parsing part of the patch can be applied in the KDE/4.9 and master branches as well (tested and working in KDE 4.8.95 and 4.9.x). ksmserver has migrated to QML since then however, and the menu structure has to wait. Currently it looks like this: http://i50.tinypic.com/96bw35.png Related ML-discussion: http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-core-devel&m=134160279511422&w=2 Update: There is a proper fix now for KDE/4.9 and master: https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/105568/ This addresses bug 297209. http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=297209 Diffs (updated) ----- kdm/backend/bootman.c 8b834d2 kdm/backend/ctrl.c 5d219fe kdm/backend/dm.h 13e7b45 kdm/backend/dm.c e0f1366 kdm/backend/util.c 6cd93ef ksmserver/shutdowndlg.h e5f0942 ksmserver/shutdowndlg.cpp a09a1a7 libs/kworkspace/kdisplaymanager.h 76f25a7 libs/kworkspace/kdisplaymanager.cpp 28fabfc Diff: http://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/105563/diff/ Testing ------- Works with the menu file produced in my system with `grub2-mkconfig`.
