This prevents the "vmlinuz" symbolic link that some + distributions create in the root directory from appearing in the loader + list. Note that this does NOT affect symbolic links to directories. + +- Added icons for Lubuntu and Kubuntu. + +- Improved the install.sh script so that it does a better job dealing with + directory names that contain spaces. + +- rEFInd now tries to guess the Linux distribution type based on the kernel + filename (Fedora and RHEL only) or the "ID" or "NAME" variables in + /etc/os-release on the kernel's partition. None of these is guaranteed to + work. A fallback of the Tux penguin icon remains in place in case rEFInd + can't find anything substantive enough for a guess. + +- Added "EFI\opensuse" to the locations searched for MOK utilities, since + OpenSUSE now uses that name. + +- Renamed "Reboot to Firmware User Interface" to "Reboot to Computer Setup + Utility" in menu. + +- Fixed bug in gptsync that caused it to hang if the disk had too few GPT + partitions to fill the MBR. + +0.6.10 (5/5/2013): +------------------ + +- Added support for "screensaver" token. If set to a positive integer, this + causes the screen to blank after the specified number of seconds of + inactivity. Pressing most keys (unfortunately NOT including Shift, Alt, + or Ctrl) will restore the display and restart the screen saver timeout. + - Added icon for ChromeOS (os_chrome.icns in the icons subdirectory). - ChromeOS reportedly boots using the fallback filename, but if a user + ChromeBooks reportedly boots using the fallback filename, but if a user wants to install rEFInd on a ChromeBook, renaming the original EFI/BOOT directory to EFI/chrome and then installing rEFInd in the fallback filename will bring up this new icon for ChromeOS.
