This is a list of the most important changes between 2.x versions. It is by no means complete, listing only user-visible changes which are interesting. The ultimate way to know what has changed is to run diff, or even neater, ask CVS about it: * Checkout the archive (see doc/cvs for how you can do this) * Determine which tags are valid, by running this command from the project root directory: cvs status -v -l Makefile Valid tags are usually like form V2-1-0 for version 2.1.0 * Ask cvs for the difference between two versions: cvs diff -r TAG1 -r TAG2 DIFF-OPTIONS for example: cvs diff -r V2-0-0 -r V2-0-1 -u 2.2.1 (19990218) All: Removed compile warnings Module i2c-dev: Small bug removed if DEBUG=1 was used Module sis5595: Now compiles for 2.0 kernels Module adm1021: Detection corrected 2.2.0 (19990216) All: Set copyrights to include 1999 All: Small bugfixes I2C: Upgraded to newest archive of Simon Vogl Module i2c-dev: NEW Module i2c-ali15x3: NEW Module i2c-via: This is old module bit-mb, now moved to the main lm_sensors directories, and somewhat improved Module sis5595: NEW Modules: Renamed all bus modules to i2c-*, new directory lay-out Library: Support for new chip drivers, several small bugs fixed Library manual pages: NEW Program i2cdetect: Moved to detect directory Program detect.pl: NEW Program doc-features: NEW Program sensors: Added man-page Document BUGS: Added cdrom bug and kernel i2c conflict 2.1.2 (19990116) Modules lm80.o, w83781d.o: fan-related Segmentation fault corrected Module gl518sm.o: yet more bug fixes. It should at long last be usable now Documentation in doc/kernel: NEW 2.1.1 (19990107) Module i2c-proc.o: Hack to make /proc/bus/ possible for kernels 2.0.35 and older Module gl518sm.o: Miscelaneous bugs and problems solved Program isadump: NEW 2.1.0 (19981230) Library: Completely NEW Program sensors: NEW Program grab_busses: NEW Program decode-dimms: More information Module bit-mb.o: Removed spurious semicolon; now runs on more VIA chipsets Module w83781d.o: NEW Module lm80.o: NEW Module gl518sm.o: new procfile beep, several small updates Modules: Now use pin readings, no more scaling within the kernel (use the library instead) 2.0.2 (19981214) Module eeprom.o: NEW Program decode-dimms: NEW Modules: fill_inode fix, will stop segfaults on unloading in kernels after 2.1.58 Modules: Somewhat less verbose on transfers Module lm78.o now recognizes and handles lm78-j and lm79 2.0.1 (1998121?) Module gl518sm.o updates, to make it actually work Module lm75.o high/low-byte swapping write bug fixed 2.0.0 (19981209) Initial release
