=============================================================================== Significant changes since 2.1.4 =============================================================================== [1] Added option which, when enabled, will cause VirtualGL to display a logo in the bottom right-hand corner of the 3D window. This is meant as a debugging tool to allow users to determine whether or not VirtualGL is active. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2] Support for encrypting the VGL Transport with OpenSSL has been removed from the default build and distribution packages. It was only a marginally useful feature, because VirtualGL also has the ability to tunnel the VGL Transport through SSh. It was necessary to maintain our own static OpenSSL libraries on Linux in order to provide a version of VirtualGL that was compatible across all Linux platforms, and this required us to keep abreast of the latest OpenSSL security fixes, etc. OpenSSL support can easily be re-added by building VirtualGL from source (see BUILDING.txt.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [3] Added a framework for creating generic image transport plugins. See rrtransport.h for a description of the API. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [4] Removed support for the proprietary Sun Ray plugin, since that plugin is no longer available from Sun. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [5] For Linux, Mac/Intel, Solaris/x86, and Windows systems, the default build of VirtualGL no longer uses TurboJPEG/IPP (which was based on the proprietary Intel Performance Primitives) or Sun mediaLib. Instead, VirtualGL now uses libjpeg-turbo, a fully open source vector accelerated JPEG codec developed in conjunction with the TigerVNC Project (and based on libjpeg/SIMD.) As a result of this, it is no longer necessary to install a separate TurboJPEG package on Linux systems. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [6] Added a universal 32/64-bit VirtualGL Client binary for OS X. The 32-bit fork works on 10.4 "Tiger" or later, and the 64-bit fork works on 10.5 "Leopard" or later. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [7] Added support for encoding images as I420 YUV and displaying through X Video. The images can either be displayed directly to the X server or sent through the VGL transport for display using vglclient. See the User's Guide for more details. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [8] Renamed /etc/modprobe.d/virtualgl to /etc/modprobe.d/virtualgl.conf to comply with the Ubuntu standard. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [9] Added VGL_SAMPLES environment variable (and vglrun -ms command line switch) to force VirtualGL to select a multisampled visual or override the level of multisampling selected by the 3D application. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [10] The uninstall script in the Mac distribution package should now work on OS X 10.6. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [11] VirtualGL can now use pixel buffer objects (PBO's) to accelerate the readback of the 3D pixels. This particularly helps when multiple users are sharing the GPU. See the "Advanced Configuration" section of the User's Guide for more information. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [12] On Linux systems, this version of VirtualGL works around the interaction issues between libdlfaker.so and VirtualBox, thus eliminating the need to specify CR_SYSTEM_GL_PATH or to run the VirtualBox application using 'vglrun -nodl'. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [13] This version of VirtualGL provides a binary package, documentation, and full support for Cygwin/X. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [14] Fixed "free(): invalid pointer" error which occurred whenever an application called XCloseDisplay() and the VGL_XVENDOR environment variable was set. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [15] VirtualGL should now work properly when used with applications that render to framebuffer objects (FBO's). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [16] vglconnect.bat should now work properly on 64-bit Windows systems. Previously, it would fail if it was installed under the "Program Files (x86)" directory. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [17] Added -gid option to vglserver_config to allow the group ID of the vglusers group to be specified, if that group must be created. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [18] TCBench should now work properly on OS X. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Sprint What will you do first with EVO, the first 4G phone?
