v2.3.1 (30/10/07)

General

• Updated and improved documentation (this is still "Work in Progress").
• Added Czech translation.
• Preferences dialog and client list now save changes immediately, which should help in situations where FahMon crashes, like fast-user-switching or closing RDP/VNC sessions.
• Added Drag-and-Drop function to the client list to allow new clients to be added more easily.
• Add Gromacs SMP CVS (GROCVS) core support.
• Adjusted margin on the benchmarks dialog.
• Fixed bug in "Effective Duration" code that produced incorrect results when calculating values for WUs with less than 100 frames.
• Detailed instructions on how to compile FahMon using the MS Free Tools are now provided.
• Altered progress detection method to use FAHlog.txt, this should help with cores that don't update unitinfo.txt in a timely fashion, or at all. Unitinfo.txt is still used as a fallback if 1) The projectId is unknown, 2) The WU is still in the "startup" phase (i.e. yellow).
• Added WebApp module. You can now export the monitoring status to 3 different formats, WebApp - a fancy jscript powered web page that mimics the FahMon interface; Simple Web - a simple web page containing useful data arranged in a simple table; Simple Text - similar to Simple Web, but optimised for shell based viewing - useful for monitoring over SSH.
• Removed redundant "display deadlines in days option". The format is now controlled by the old "Display ETA as" option which has been renamed to "Display dates as"
• Added menu item to cycle through ETA display styles as requested.
• Updated about dialog to use new website

• Added Spanish translation
• New application icon, including Vista-required dimensions

v2.3.0 (10/09/07)

Linux

• Replaced scons with GNU build system (makes it easier for packagers).
• Altered image path to now use standard directory (like /usr/share/pixmaps/fahmon).
• Altered message.log location to use ~/.fahmon/
• Above changes mean FahMon can be run from anywhere on the system without worrying about being in the right directory first.
• Automatically creates Application Menu shortcut using GNU build system.
• Fixed typo that caused default file manager to be set to "Other" instead of "Konqueror" on a fresh install.
• psummary parser altered to change the decimal point symbol on the fly, thus allowing non-english users to display "," instead of "."

Windows

• Created new installer using NSIS

General

• Documentation altered to fit with GNU build system.
• Fixed regression that caused FahMon to lose settings on OS shutdown or logoff.
• Added Double Gromacs B (DGROMACSB) core support.
• Adapted asynchronous client detection to work with updated timezone conversion system. Asynchronous clients should no longer appear "hung" when "ignore asynchronous clocks" is enabled. This has the potential to display the state incorrectly for clients having very long frame times (close to 1 day). For the most accurate state detection, client clocks should be as in-sync as possible (use NTP).
• Fixed some items on the preferences dialog that didn't automatically refresh the client list when the preferences were applied/saved.
• The information panel now shows the full PRCG data for the current client (if readable).
• The "effective" rate can now be used to calculate ETA and PPD. This bases the frame times on the total running time of the WU since it was downloaded, thus takes into account times when the client was not actually processing the WU.
• Fixed bug which caused incorrect sorting by PPD when there were stopped clients in the list.
• Double clicking on clients will open the folder containing that client.
• Altered WU information panel to show deadlines as days, hours, minutes to match the ETA display.
• Improved instance handling to raise the previous instance instead of producing a warning message. Uses DDE on Win32 and Unix sockets on Unix.
• Made log processing routines more robust to cope with messy lines in FAHlog.txt created by the Windows SMP client.
• Source package now contains all files necessary to build on Linux, MS Windows and OSX. However, they are only guaranteed to compile sucessfully on Linux. MS Windows can be made to work, OSX is unknown at this point.
• FahMon is now internationalised, and comes with translations for: British English, French, Polish, Portuguese, Russian and Swedish.

v2.2.2 (07/07/07)

• Added preliminary detection for hung clients
• Fixed bug which prevented reloading selected client data after being restored from the system tray
• Fixed regression which caused inaccessible clients to report an incorrect state on FahMon launch
• Fixed regression that often caused an incorrect xyz file to be saved when experimental reload system was activated
• Fixed (longstanding) major issue with state detection and timezone conversion which caused clients to have an unknown state when the local timezone has passed 00:00 and the client hasn't.
• Fixed bug which prevented you from running FahMon in "start minimised" mode without "enable tray icon" being set
• Fixed another bug relating to window size not restoring correctly. If the frame is ever detected to be 0x0, default values are used instead
• Client list colour scheme now follows system on both Windows and Linux
• Made more code compatible with newer versions of wxWidgets (Win32)
