This release fixes a handful of minor bugs. Duplex |
| 61 |

settings were reported incorrectly on linux (half and |
| 62 |
+ |
full duplex were swapped), saidar displayed negative |
| 63 |
+ |
filesystem stats incorrectly, and NFS filesystems were |
| 64 |
+ |
ignored. These have all been fixed. |

This release brings new features and new platforms. We've |
| 137 |
– |
added information about network interfaces (duplex, speed, |
| 138 |
– |
etc) along with further statistics such as i/o packets, i/o |
| 139 |
– |
errors, and collisions. Support has also been added for |
| 140 |
– |
OpenBSD and DragonFly BSD. Finally some work has been done |
| 141 |
– |
to reduce the platforms on which libstatgrab needs elevated |
| 142 |
– |
privileges. See the NEWS file for more information. |

The main focus of this release is adding support for |
| 153 |
– |
Solaris 6. We've also added Python bindings so you can use |
| 154 |
– |
libstatgrab directly from Python (see the extras |
| 155 |
– |
directory). Finally, we've tidied up a few bits of the |
| 156 |
– |
code. |

This release primarily fixes bugs. On Linux a file |
| 167 |
– |
descriptor leak was fixed. On Solaris some significant |
| 168 |
– |
speed increases were made to the disk mapping code, along |
| 169 |
– |
with some bug fixes for Solaris 7 platforms. Also, the |
| 170 |
– |
library part of libstatgrab (but not the tools) is now |
| 171 |
– |
released under the LGPL instead of the GPL. |

This release brings support for Linux 2.6 and partial |

support for Cygwin. On Solaris libstatgrab now returns disk |
| 183 |
– |
names using cNtNdNsN names rather than the older sdN names. |
| 184 |
– |
There are also a bunch of fixes and optimisations in |
| 185 |
– |
various places. Finally, a new function has been added to |
| 186 |
– |
make it quicker to drop any elevated privileges libstatgrab |
| 187 |

may require on some operating systems. |
