ZybaCafe

Many GUI design improvements were done in the
Linux client. The update frequency in the admin
panel was reduced to prevent mistaken clicks. A
manual refresh button was added. A cheat with
pausing and slow launching games was fixed by
adding an unpause button on the admin console.
Support was added for "lpr" based printing needed
by text-only printers. The user can now see the
time remaining in the taskbar as well as in the
counter window. Several crucial crashpoints in the
Linux client were resolved, and a crash bug when
using standard time units with offers set up in
the admin console was also resolved.

Receipt printing support was added for thermal printers through CUPS. Special offer support was added. Several crash points in the Linux client, daemon, and admin console were fixed.

With this release, all the core functionality is
fully working, as is the plugin system. However,
it has only been tested internally and may still
contain severe bugs. ZybaCafe now uses its own
countdown daemon rather than cron jobs. The
backend was switched to PostgreSQL. An advanced
plugin system was implemented for easy
extensibility. The program is now completely
independent of Unix usernames/passwords, allowing
for portability, security, and reduced management.

This is a minor update to 3.0.8 which fixes a bug that set the maximum
number of minutes for a user to 6 instead of 60.

This is a maintainance release and most likely the last in the 3.x series. It has been migrated to GTK2. Libdireqcafe now explicitly sets the shell for newly created users for compatibillity with new versions of KDM. Sources now compile under the latest versions of lazarus. There are several small interface enhancements, and several small bugfixes in the installer.
