Description Michele Noberasco (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

This new version sports:
- Starting X sessions for users with a shell other than bash
  should no longer fail with strange errors
  (this occurred at least with tcsh)
- added support for selecting a random theme
  at startup (just use 'random' as theme name)
- added support for screen savers
- added a screen saver: pixel
- added option to select which framebuffer device to use
- updated text mode login for increased security
- no longer necessary to create a /etc/directfbrc file:
  now qingy creates automatically file /etc/directfbrc.qingy
  (thus other DirectFB apps are unaffected) with
  hopefully the proper resolution already detected.
  Note: you need the 'fbset' program for this.


Ebuild for version 0.2.1 works great (with name changed, of course)
Also I think qingy should sit in sys-apps, not x11-misc (see bug #29594).

Did you have the chance to check this, yet?
I'm getting near to a newer version...
