<title>Useful notes on upgrading</title> |
||||
<para>When upgrading from previous releases you may run into some of |
||||
the following use cases. Follow the recommended instructions to minimize |
||||
potential problems.</para> |
||||
|
||||
<sect3 id="release-notes-r14.0.8-hints-dbus"> |
||||
<title>Removed dbus policy at_console</title> |
||||
<para>A newer version of SystemD has removed the dbus policy at_console. |
||||
Because the TDE does not yet contain a policykit agent (this will be addressed |
||||
in R14.1.0), a plugdev group policy has been added in the default TDE Hardware |
||||
Control daemon dbus configuration. This group should be available on most |
||||
systems. To enable communication with the TDE Hardware Control daemon, add |
||||
users to the plugdev group.</para> |
||||
<para>Note: If a policykit is installed but a policykit agent is not |
||||
available, it does not work well. In this case, it is advisable to |
||||
uninstall policykit to allow the use of dbus rules.</para> |

<sect3 id="release-notes-r14.0.8-hints-r14-xdg-tests"> |
||||
<title>Test failures in r14-xdg-update</title> |
||||
<para>If you experience test failures at login time during the execution of |
||||
the r14-xdg-update script, please try logging out and logging in again. Most |
||||
failures will be automatically fixed. In case of persistent failures that |
||||
don't get automatically recovered, please contact the TDE team on their |
||||
official channels (mailing lists or IRC).</para> |
||||
<para>For example you may experience TEST9 failures if you had previously |
||||
edited your TDE menu and there are references to both 'kde-*' and 'tde-*' |
||||
files for the same application. This will require manual editing to |
||||
determine what is the correct way to fix the problem.</para> |

<title>FreeBSD Support</title> |
||||
<para>TDE continues to offer support for FreeBSD, although still partial |
||||
given some of the new issues that have arisen with the latest versions |
||||
of FreeBSD. The TDE team will try their best to improve support for |
||||
FreeBSD but progress will probably be slow. Additional developers or |
||||
contributors willing to help porting the remaining features and |
||||
applications are always welcome.</para> |
