Banshee 0.10.10 (May 1, 2006)

Notes

This release marks the stabilization of the 0.10.x series. 0.10.x releases will be made from the BANSHEE_0_10_9_SL branch in CVS.

As such, no new features will be introduced in the 0.10.x series, but lots of great work will soon be going into HEAD in preparation for the first 0.11.x release. For more information on what is soon to come in the 0.11.x series, read the Banshee Roadmap (work in progress).

NJB Details

[1] NJB support requires a few things that are distribution specific and may not be available yet. First, the distribution must support making the NJB device (through libusb) accessible to users (done by matching against portable_audio_player.type). This should be done through HAL resmgr with the following entry into an FDI file in fdi/policy/10osvendor: 

<deviceinfo version="0.2">
<device>
  ...
  <match key="info.category" string="portable_audio_player">
    <match key="portable_audio_player.access_method" string="user">
      <merge key="resmgr.class" type="string">audioplayer</merge>
    </match>
  </match>
  ...
</device>
</deviceinfo>

Additionally, the 20-njb.fdi file must be installed in fdi/information/20thirdparty/

Download the 20-njb.fdi file (http://banshee-project.org/files/misc/20-njb.fdi)

To verify that HAL is properly setting permissions on the device, run njb-handshake

Banshee also requires njb-sharp 0.3.0 now.
