Changelog:
* Mon Mar 12 2007 Michael E Brown <michael_e_brown at dell.com> - 0.13.4-1
- Added dellWirelessCtl binary
- Added 'static' makefile target to build static binaries and clean them as well
- fix for signed/unsigned bug in probes binary. CPU temp misreported
- simplify interface for DELL_CALLING_INTERFACE_SMI, autodetect Port/Magic
- document all of the tokens for controlling wireless on dell notebooks
- enums for SMI args/res to make code match docs better (cbRES1 = res[0], which
was confusing.
- helper functions isTokenActive() and activateToken() to simplify token API.
- Added missing windows .cpp files to the dist tarball for those who compile
windows from dist tarball vs source control
- Add support for EFI based machines without backwards compatible smbios table
entry point in 0xF0000 block.
- Added wirelessSwitchControl() and wirelessRadioControl() API for newer
laptops.
- fixed bug in TokenDA activate() code where it wasnt properly using SMI
(never worked, but apparently wasnt used until now.)
