news 28 Posted February 20, 2013 Hello gentle good people, Announcing another release in the 3.7.x unstable cycle. Changes since 3.7.5: - Add oVirt support. - Add support for post-installation drivers. This combined with libosinfo 0.2.4 means automatic installation of QXL and all virio drivers, and spice-vdagent as part of Windows XP express installation. - VM properties: - Mark recommended RAM and storage when known. - The 1M step and minimum we use for RAM is too small. Bump it to 64M. - The 1G step value we use for storage is too big. Decrease it to 256M. - Don't use IEC units for storage in wizard and properties. - Fix crash when passing media on command line. - Fix an infinite loop. - Fix positioning of thumbnail in properties view. - Adapt media detection code against latest udev and libosinfo. - More rebust media detection. - More robust restart of installations. - Ensure driver installation progress always reaches 100% even if an error occurs during the installation. - Allow search with multiple terms. A search like "foo bar" now means name containing "foo" and "bar". This is nicer, and what you expect from e.g. gnome-shell search. - Update to the new gnome-shell search interface. - Added/updated/fixed translations: - Galician - Greek - Malayalam - Polish - Serbian - Slovenian - Spanish - Traditional Chinese - Turkish - Uyghur - Some other functional and non-functional improvements and fixes. Dependencies changed: - spice-client-gtk-3.0 >= 0.15 - govirt-1.0 >= 0.0.3 (Conditional: Without it, oVirt support is disabled).
