Thinstation-HZDR v1.4

This is the 1.4 release of the HZDR fork of thinstation. It features the following improvements compared to the last release:

• merged repository to latest upstream thinstation 5.2-master repository including a newer base kernel (3.14.9).
• worked around problem with missing HDMI audio due to incorrect kernel dependencies between snd-hda-intel and i915.
• changed window manager to xfwm4 which supports all X11 extensions ThinLinc requires for proper multi-monitor support.
• general/minor improvements

Thinstation-HZDR v1.3

This is the 1.3 release of the HZDR fork of thinstation. It features the following improvements compared to the last release:

• updated environment merged with the upstream thinstation repository including a newer base kernel (3.12.17).
• modified standard cpu frequency scaling to use "conservative" governor instead.
• modified 'qutselect' environment to also contain a firefox kiosk mode which allows to run a firefox kiosk session in full mode rather than server connections only. This is used by our own public library.
• added more hid-* modules per default so that more different keyboards are supported (e.g. apple keyboards).
• changed fastboot and pkg network reloading to use http (via wget) rather than exclusively tftp. This severely speeds up loading of the lib.squash and external pkgs.
• new 'thinlinc_nightly' package which will allow to download & install nightly builds to ThinLinc.
• minor bugfixes and improvements.

Thinstation-HZDR v1.2

• full pulseaudio support for outputting audio including auto-switching of audio output devices if a user plugs/unplugs certain audio output destinations (e.g. headphones).
• new "dualscreen" XRANDR option to make sure a dual screen system really ends up with two separate displays.
• improved idle shutdown behavior.
• updated thinlinc environment to be compatible with ThinLinc 4.1.1 release.
