so this was the hiccups have been seeing... it was temperature +eeze+
udev stalling out. tempget backend works without stalls so that is now
the only one.
so new laptops now seem to no longer support S3 sleep. sleeping is
done basically by going as idle as possible. you can ask the kernel to
freeze execution BUT this seems to use about the same power as staying
alive in my tests. to support this add 2 things:
1. a FREEZE powersave mode which implies we're alive but want to
really stay as idle as absolutely possible.
2. powersave aware sleep functions that replace the usleeps in threads
so they can switch from being super sleepy when in freeze mode to
normal.
each poll - check if temp actually changed and only send edje message
if tempt actually did change. saves some cpu while polling in the bg
for these things.
@optimize
this should reduce mem usage by a sub binary and aso solve the sub
shell kill issue too nd still keep the polling of system status out of
the mainloop and keep it unblocked.
Just some groups and basic description for modules. I'm NOT going back
to this anytime soon, but would be VERY happy if people could do some
screenshots and put the images for each module in docs/img/ folder,
linking to them from each e_mod_main.h

* Remove vim modelines:

find . -name '*.[chx]' -exec sed -i '/\/[\*\/] *vim:/d' \{\} \;

Don't need exe data handlers for udev processing.
Cut down on the number of rogue tempget processes (if using Internal
method).
Fix some formatting.
Use PATH_MAX and E_FREE.
SVN revision: 49167
if e is compiled with eeze as the preferred backend, a new config page will appear in the settings for the temperature module where internal and udev are selectable options.
udev mode should support ALL possible hardware, so if you've been having issues with the current temp module, try udev mode!
also note that udev mode provides an extra amount of precision for hahas; it also still obeys the configurable polling intervals.
please test and report all bugs!

* small cleanup
* allow compilation on opensolaris
This modules does not work on opensolaris. I don't know that stuff,
so I have no idea of what to do to fix that

contact me ASAP.

But is so big i fear i could have broken some piece of code. So report any wrong
behaviour to me (cedric on #edevelop).
So moving e17 and efreet to eina_hash. With a little efreet API break so they
must come together.
SVN revision: 38185
1. configure/build changes to allow cross-compiling painlessly
2. pager module namespace changes - this was still dirty afdter the namespace
cleanup, so clean it up
3. add a powersave subsystem - doesnt have an "automatic" way to turn on and
off right now, this i think is best provided by modules (that do things like
monitor acpi status's (eg close lid of laptop), AC power status etc. etc.
this allows e to nicely defer "power" expensive actions to avoid disk
spinups etc.
4. move to use the new ecore poller system - discussed long ago as part of
power management/saving issues. now it exists
5. add a canvas idle flush call that helsp cope with the new shm greedy
software x11 engine stuff
6. use the new powersave subsystem where appropriate
7. fix non-zeroed/initted memory access in e_fm_main
8. fix mem leak for e menus
9. remove ipc handlers for changed/removed config values
10. use animaotr not timer for menu scrolls - then menu scrolls obey the fps
config
11. fix up timer/poll happienss of cursor idle stuff
12. remove avoid damage from popups for now - causing problems
13. change battery and temp readouts to b e shorter so they fit
14. pager can emit signals on focus change for mini-windows now
15. temperature module now uses a slave process and uses stdin/out to talk to
it and get output - this makes e smoother as in my expereicne i found getting
the temp on my laptop actually took like 200ms so e "hang" for 200ms while
reading the acpi files - so now the subprocess does it and just writesa back
to e when it gets it.
ecore:
1. add ecore_pollers. see the documentation on them in doxygen comments :)
2. fix timers to only go off when they have to - bug there that made e's
select time out a LOT more than it needed to. defensive coding hid the
problem. now fixed. e should be much more power friendly now.
3. formatting/niceness in ecore_exe stuff
4. some comments on comments with SIGIO ideas vs. select
5. add call to be able to add an idle enterer at the start of the list of
them, not just the end (as has been the default)
6. fix ecore_evas to support auto evas idler calls after 0.5 secs of idle in
all canvases - and to do it right
7. if argb destination - set the shape EVENT shape (to mask out events in
transparent regions much like shape does withotu translucency)
8. in ecore_x add support for the event shape
evas:
1. fix cache to work properly and not just always fill up (as it seemed to
like to think cahce useage dropped below 0 when it didnt and thus just
over-fill)
2. software x11 engine now ONLY uses shm segments - no ximages over the
socket. this ximage hack was there to avoid the 2 round trips involved in
setting up an shm image - now i mitigated that wih an shm image cache pool.
it keeps shm images around and repurposes them for new update regions if
appropriate. this means many fewer shm creates (about 1/100th the number) and
since we recycle the memory less 0 memory page filling by the kernel - in the
end, i recorded about a 10-20% speedup over the old software x11 engine.
simple tests i have seen up to 120% speedups. idle flush now does something -
it frees all the cached shm segments. it has a hard-coded limit of 4mb worth
of shm segments (or 32 segments - whichever comes first) to keep around. once
can never complain much about speedups methinks :). also evas will defer sync
until the NEXT frame is written - this means evas can calculate the next
frame of data while x dma's/copies the images to the screen at the same time
(if you hve a dual core or multi-cpu machnike or your xserver is able to use
DMA to copy image data to the screen/video ram then this should see a decent
speedup).

a gadget from one shelf to another it will keep the same config. Since the
id is mainly for the module to find the appropriate config for a gadget,
the module is now responsible for creating id's for gadgets config. One
problem is that we no longer can trust the id of a gadget, so we need to
store a reference between a gadget and its config after startup. No big
deal.

module.eap files being installed - and using the e_apps api to load them and
ask for a name. Also icon is expected to be in this file too and i have
removed the info func call from modules as well as config_menu, module menus,
and other cruft in moduel structs. this also means revving the module api
version and saving users from a "if i recompile it will work" thing. :)
moduels need serious updates, not just a recompile for this. your modules
WILL break.
SVN revision: 23045
it's built as an arch specific package and it is intrinsically required by e
and cannot work without it nor is the data shared betwene e and other apps
unless e itself is installed too
SVN revision: 22260
i haven't been able to test that this fully works, since i don't have ACPI temperature sensors on here. but, it works to the extent that the old one did here, so it SHOULD be fine.
SVN revision: 20037
1. "allow overlap" patch for modules - needs better names in the gui (Allow
windows to overlap maybe - as allow overlap is very vague)
2. itray module (buggy - buggy - beware. i know why. beware i said!)
3. TODO items
