  Parameter	WiFi Scanner
  Registry	network.interfaces.wirelesslan.device0.mssid_scanner
  Range	default / iwlist / NetworkManager
  Info: "default" is currently equal to "iwlist"

X11 System

• Added xprintidle tool to firmware.
• The new Display Switch tool can use multiple different profiles, automatically chosen at runtime depending on the currently connected monitors. A profile is created, when the current monitor layout/resolution is configured via the Display Switch utility. The profile will be associated with the current connected displays automatically (manufacturer, model and used connector are used for allocation) and if applicable, the state of the laptop lid. The setup will be restored by hot-(un)plugging known displays, means the system will automatically switch to the already configured profile. The Display Switch utility itself got a new interface. All base functionality can be configured via drag & drop.
  An example workflow:
  • Connect the hardware and close/open lid
  • Open the Display Switch Utility
    • A quick (simple) setting can be selected directly.
    • Should the desired application deviate from the possibilities provided, the Advanced button opens a drag & drop interface for further settings.
• In this interface the displays can be dragged and dropped for the intended configuration. The display will snap adjacent to others.
• If a display should not be used, it can be dragged to the Disabled area on the top right - the screen will be reactivated when it is dragged back to the active area.
• To show the same content on multiple displays, one display should be dragged onto an other active screen. The interface will show Mirror. The mirroring monitor will be displayed on the lower right.
• With the Apply button the current state will be set, with Yes on the Keep configuration dialog the current settings will be saved to persistent storage and associated with the profile.
• Advanced functionality (panning/scaling/resolutions) can be configured in drop-down boxes, hidden in a drawer on the right side. The drawer can be expanded by clicking the < button on the right edge.

• For the Display Switch functionality the following parameters should be enabled for proper usage:

  More...

  IGEL Setup	Accessories > Display Switch > Options
  Parameter	Preserve settings over reboot
  Registry	sessions.user_display0.options.preserve_settings
  Value	enabled / disabled

  IGEL Setup	Accessories > Display Switch > Options
  Parameter	Smart display configuration
  Registry	x.auto_associate
  Value	enabled / disabled

• The IGEL Display Switch utility is now used for NVIDIA graphics devices as well.
