| * | Added support for separate configuration of X keyboard layout/variant....New parameter for the boot commandline:
xkb=[language],variant
Examples:
# Only specify a Xkbvariant, and inherit the console keyboard layout in X:
kbd=nl xkb=,sundeadkeys
# Define a 'french swiss' layout in X, independent of the console:
xkb=ch,fr
Two new keyboard/language choices have been added which use this functionality:
- german swiss
- french swiss
(requested by Niki Kovacs).
New: if a non-US keyboard layout is selected, the US layout will be added
as a secondary layout. Toggling between the two layouts is possible using
the Shift-LeftAlt key combo.
Also new: the RightAlt key is now defined as the Compose Key in X. Meaning,
the combo <RightAlt><"><e> will generate a 'ë character'.

| * | Use more compatible isohybrid commandline parameters....This modifies Didier's original patch with a simpler set of parameters.
His recommendations are based on these threads:

The new parameters allow the big ISOs to be booted in VBox.
Patch proposed by Didier Spaier.

| * | Generate our own Grub font files, to fix the bad font rendering at UEFI boot....Slackware's shipped Grub font is 19 point in size which does not scale well.
Research and proposed patch by Didier Spaier.

| * | Add themed GRUB2 configuration for UEFI boot....The GRUB2 theme is similar to the Syslinux theme used for BIOS boot.
However, the GRUB menu also allows the user to select a timezone,
whereas due to the limitations of syslinux, you'll have to edit the
syslinux commandline to change your timezone there.

from time to time.

| * | Set ownership of SDDM homedirectory recursively. | Eric Hameleers | 2015-12-16 | 1 | -1/+1 |
| * | Make the configuration of the Live environment less verbose....There is no added value in seeing all the executed commands scroll by.

| Eric Hameleers | 2015-12-07 | 1 | -3/+13 |

more than 1024 cylinders.

| * | Explicitly mount /tmp on a tmpfs, this is better for the USB stick's health....Not an issue for a Live Edition running exclusively in RAM, but
things are different when you create a USB stick with persistence.
The /tmp would then be created on the USB stick and the continuous writes
will degrade the flash medium.

| * | Fix the broken implementation of custom default runlevel. | Eric Hameleers | 2015-12-02 | 1 | -5/+10 |
| * | Add support for creating a Cinnamon Live ISO....Thanks to Willy Sudiarto Raharjo for the repository.
Also, renamed Willy's 'MSB' Live Edition to 'MATE'.
| Eric Hameleers | 2015-12-02 | 1 | -7/+17 |
| * | Add support for alternative directorynames of 'persistence' and 'liveslak'....The persistence directory on USB is called 'persistence' by default but can
now be re-defined when running 'make_slackware_live.sh' to create the ISO.
Additionally it can be changed dynamically on boot of the Live OS by adding
a 'persistence=<dirname>' parameter to the boot.
The Live OS main directory is called 'liveslak' by default but can
now be re-defined when running 'make_slackware_live.sh' to create the ISO.
Additionally it can be changed dynamically on boot of the Live OS by adding
a 'livemain=<dirname>' parameter to the boot.
