The first (and for now - only) implementation is libparted-based. - -* New operation: Shredding (i.e., securely deleting) a partition - -* A configuration dialog including settings for: - - * File system colors - - * The default file system for new partitions - - * Applying operations as non-root - - * Setting the log level for the log output dock. - - * The backend plugin to use - - * How to shred: Overwrite with zeros (faster) or random data (slower, but - more secure) - -* Allow editing start and end sectors in size dialogs in a new "advanced" - dialog section. - -* Instantly align partition start and end in size dialogs if partition - alignment is on. - -* Show a progress dialog when scanning for devices. - -* A device properties dialog. - - -Additional changes: -------------------- - -* Allow the Information dock widget to be docked at the top of bottom - -* The partition list view now has more information available in additional - columns.

This fixes - a bug where the user was not able to grow an extended partition if he'd - previously selected a file system that cannot grow beyond a certain size. - -* Always use the correct icons in modified ok/cancel buttons in dialogs and - message boxes - -* Fix a crash when operations to create, resize and delete an extended - partitions where incorrectly merged into one (bug 232092) - - -1.0.1 (2010-01-09) -================== - -* Fix a bug that made it impossible to activate or deactivate a swap file - system. - -* Correctly handle linux swap even with newer parted versions. - -* Ask for an administrator's password on startup so that non-KDE users can run - the application from their launcher. - -* Use the "blkid" command as an alternative to "vol_id" if the latter is - unavailable. - -* Do not crash when using the Oxygen style under KDE SC 4.4. - -* Do not crash when the user clicks in the partition widget with newer - g++ versions. - -* Sort devices by name after scanning. - -* Don't disable updates for the partition widget while applying operations. - This leads to corrupted graphics unter Qt4.6. - -* Work around a LibParted segmentation fault when the Linux Device Mapper is - used and /dev/mapper has non-existing entries. - -* The above also works around a LibParted problem when the BIOS has a floppy - drive configured but none is actually present. - -* Set item height in the partition and devices lists to 32 pixel to make them - look less condensed. - -1.0.0 (2009-08-17) -================== - -None. - -1.0.0-RC1 (2009-08-03) -====================== - -* Correctly handle ext4 file systems even with patched parted 1.8.8 (and - hopefully 1.8.9 too). Patch by Fatih Asici . (bug - #195243) - -* Clear the partition flags for a copied partition in the preview. (bug - #202346) - -* Write the new start sector to the partition's boot sector if an NTFS file - system was moved or copied. (bug #202329) - - -1.0.0-BETA3 (2009-06-04) -======================== - -* Set the default file system in the New-Partition-dialog, don't just rely on - it being the first one in the list. - -* Sort items in file system combo boxes case-insensitively. - -* Fix a bug where the total free space available could get smaller and smaller - when moving an existing partition in a dialog. - -* Fix a bug that the progress information wasn't set as window title for the - top level application window. - -* Speed up copying file systems (and thus moving, resizing and copying). - -* Add some basic timing output to the detailed report for copying file systems. - -* Find a file system's mount point even if it is identified by label in fstab. - -* Add support for reading file system labels from FAT16 and FAT32. - -* Fix a bug where the volume label for a linuxswap file system was lost when - resizing it. - -* Make sure all interesting information shown in labels anywhere in the - application is user-selectable with the mouse. - -* Display the UUID for most file systems that support it. - -* Always show the current file system in the partition properties dialog's file - system combo box, even if it cannot be created, is too big or too small. - - -1.0.0-BETA2 (2009-04-30) -======================== - -* Add an application icon contributed by David Miller. - -* Allow setting the file system label in the dialog when creating a new partition. - -* Add a context menu to operation list. - -* Use a shell script to run partition manager as a child of hal-lock. This - should in theory (and according to the hal-lock manpage) avoid notifications - for new devices, but doesn't seem to work that well. - -* Fix a bug that would keep the user from deleting a newly created logical - partition because the application thought there were higher-numbered - partitions still mounted. - -* Add a kcm for KDE Partition Manager. If this is built and installed or not - can be (like it already is the case with the KPart) configured via cmake. - - -1.0.0-BETA1 (2009-01-13) -======================== - -* Fix a potential crash when merging a New Operation and a Create File System - Operation. - -* Set extended partitions as busy as long as logical partitions inside them - are mounted. - -* Don't silently succeed when unmounting a partition that cannot in fact be - unmounted because it has no mount points. - -* Prevent creating a new partition table on a device with mounted partitions. - -* Add tooltips to partition widgets. - -* Don't show cd/dvd readers or writers as devices even if libparted reports - them. - -* Add support for ext4. - -* Fix calculation of reserved/free blocks for ext2/3/4. - -* Output reason why a mount or unmount might have failed. - -* Fix minimum width for extended partitions in the partition table widget. - -* Fix a bug where a partition table just created would not disappear when the - operation to create it was undone. - -* Don't allow creating partitions smaller than the device's cylinder size. - -* Fix an error that could lead to some space (a few megabytes) between two - partitions being wasted. - - -1.0.0-ALPHA2 (2008-09-24) -========================= - -* Add and install a .desktop file. - -* Don't allow the user to close the main window while operations are being - applied. - -* Handle activating and deactivating swap. Also, swap does have labels. - -* Don't try to print a mount point in the partition properties dialog if there - is none. - -* Show partition table type name and used/max primary partitions in the info - pane. - -* All disk label types but msdos are read only for now, until the support - situation for them improves. - -* Set default value for maximum number of primaries from 255 to 4. - -* Actually set the correct disk label type before applying the operation to - create a new disk label. - -* Don't update the partition table widget while operations are being applied. - This fixes a race condition that would potentially crash the application when - applying operations. - -* Update devices in the GUI after creating a new disk label or undoing - operations. - -* Set the operation state of all operations to StateNone when temporarily - undoing them right before starting the thread to apply them. This fixes a - crash when an operation fails and the remaining ones are undone twice. - -* Update bug report address and homepage in the aboutdata. - -* Unblock SIGCHLD in main so Kubuntu's kdesudo can run the application as root. - -* If udevadm settle fails, try to call udevsettle to better support older - systems. - -* Fix the minimum size calculations for partition widgets. - -* Add some doxygen documentation. - - -1.0.0-ALPHA1 (2008-09-18) -========================= - -* First public release -
