====== Changes from 1.0.x to 1.1.x ====== AstLinux 1.1.x is a medium upgrade from the previous 1.0.x series. Most notable are: * Prosody XMPP/Jabber server * Asterisk Calendar integration * Perl - more complete support * Lua - added scripting language * Minor Linux Kernel upgrade * Many Package updates !!**Board changes in AstLinux 1.1.x**!! * "via[-serial]" and "viac7[-serial]" board types will be automatically redirected to "geni586[-serial]" board types. Since the release of AstLinux 1.x using a unified kernel config across all boards, the usefulness of special "via" and "viac7" board types has been eliminated. Users do not have to do anything special, upgrading with "upgrade-run-image" or the web interface System tab is all that is required. * "net4801" and "wrap" board types have reached end-of-life. AstLinux 1.0.6 was the last supported version. * Current supported board types are: "geni586", "geni586-serial", "alix" and "net5501" !!**Asterisk changes in AstLinux 1.1.x**!! * AstLinux images now will be provided with Asterisk 1.8.x and Asterisk 11.x. * Asterisk 1.4.x users are urged to upgrade their configurations to Asterisk 1.8.x or Asterisk 11.x, primarily for obtaining the latest security updates. **Changes from 1.0.x to 1.1.x** * When you upgrade be sure to read the complete [[http://svn.code.sf.net/p/astlinux/code/tags/1.1.0/docs/ChangeLog.txt|1.1.0 ChangeLog.txt]] * Minor Linux kernel bump (2.6.35.14 in 1.1.0 compared to 2.6.35.13 in 1.0.6) * [[http://prosody.im/|Prosody]], an XMPP Server supporting Messaging and Presence has been added. New XMPP_* rc.conf variables and web interface configuration support. \\ It is supported as a sub-tab from the Network tab: Network tab -> Network Services: XMPP Server, Messaging and Presence { Configure XMPP } * Asterisk Calendar Support: CalDAV, iCalendar(.ics), MS Exchange and MS Exchange Web Service * Lua, a simple, efficient programming language is now supported, version 5.1.5. \\ Additional Lua Modules: luafilesystem, luasocket, luaexpat, luasec \\ More Info: http://www.lua.org/ * perl, version bump to 5.16.2. No longer use "microperl", now using "miniperl" which is a cross-compiled version of full perl using perlcross. While compiled modules are now supported, only a limited set of perl modules are included because of our small image size design. \\ Note: The directory "/mnt/kd/perl" will be searched for additional perl modules, such as Asterisk::AGI. \\ Issue 'perl -V' from the CLI for more details including the --only-mod= modules. \\ Issue 'find /usr/lib/perl -name "*.pm"' to show all installed perl modules. * Asterisk AGI scripts using "perl" are better supported, for example Asterisk::AGI is supported if the "/mnt/kd/perl" directory contains Asterisk.pm and Asterisk/AGI.pm \\ More Info: http://search.cpan.org/~jamesgol/asterisk-perl-1.03/lib/Asterisk/AGI.pm * Note: The DAHDI commands 'dahdi_genconf' and 'dahdi_hardware' now work with the new installed perl. * OpenVPN Server sub-tab, added a new "Private Key Size:" entry, 1024 or 2048 Bits. Future generated keys/certificates will use the private key size value. * Many, many updates. \\ \\
