Plans and ideas for 1.1:
|
2009-11-29 17:19:38 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2010-01-18 12:31:00 +00:00
|
|
|
* Information about file system on a separate tab in the properties, unique
|
|
|
|
|
to the file system in use.
|
2010-02-17 13:18:25 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2010-03-11 22:56:42 +00:00
|
|
|
* Check if no of sectors fits in an unsigned 32 bit int for msdos partition
|
|
|
|
|
tables.

|
|
2010-02-28 18:36:47 +00:00
|
|
|
* The KPart works but has problems: The context menus don't show up, the status
|
2010-02-23 17:17:08 +00:00
|
|
|
bar is missing, maybe more.
|
2010-03-01 18:30:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2010-03-02 13:35:57 +00:00
|
|
|
* save msdos mbr?
|
|
|
|
|
|
2010-03-11 22:56:42 +00:00
|
|
|
* let the user specify extern command locations and options in the settings;
|
|
|
|
|
use some program and binary management setup internally like k3b has it
|
2010-03-03 00:15:26 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2010-03-11 22:56:42 +00:00
|
|
|
* parse progress information at least from e2fsck and ntfsclone (do we use the
|
|
|
|
|
latter at all? if not we should); maybe others.
|
2010-03-07 15:45:00 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2010-03-11 14:17:21 +00:00
|
|
|
* offer a) no alignment of partition boundaries at all or b) legacy cylinder
|
|
|
|
|
alignment or c) sector based alignment (the name is misleading, though)
|
2010-03-07 15:45:00 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2010-03-12 13:08:05 +00:00
|
|
|
* the size dialog base is a mess with its confusing free before/after stuff.
|
|
|
|
|
redesign to use first and last sector and nothing else and calc the rest from
|
|
|
|
|
there.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* once the above redesign is done, allow the user to adjust first and last
|
|
|
|
|
sector directly. maybe offer a details dialog widget. maybe also offer to
|
|
|
|
|
skip alignign the parition when creating it in that details widget?

Bugs to fix for 1.1:
|
2010-03-03 00:15:26 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2010-03-11 14:17:21 +00:00
|
|
|
* copy&paste seems broken wrt alignment when copying from cylinder aligned to
|
|
|
|
|
sector aligned drives (maybe even more than that)

For releases after 1.1:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* write a setup-kcm in the style of k3b's so that the user can set the r/w
|
|
|
|
|
permissions of the disks there; also use kauth to update the partition table
|
|
|
|
|
in the kernel. that should cover all cases where we actually need root
|
|
|
|
|
privileges now.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The whole lvm/dm debacle.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The interface between core and the file systems needs some more thought.
|
|
|
|
|
Ideally we'd be free to use either external helper apps (like we do now) or
|
|
|
|
|
libraries to achieve the same things. Libraries in this case being libntfs-3g
|
|
|
|
|
and libext2fs. There's one for reiserfs too, iirc. Using libraries we'd
|
|
|
|
|
hopefully be able to get meaningful progress status reporting while resizing,
|
|
|
|
|
checking and so on.
