================
Information:
================
IMPORTANT: If you install this firmware you cannot downgrade to versions
earlier than 1.07.100.

IMPORTANT: This releases integrates two Citrix Receiver versions 12 and 13.
You can only choose to run either of the versions.
The old 12 Citrix Receiver is still available for compatibility reasons and
activated by default. Version 13 of the Citrix Receiver can be activated at
the local setup of the device or through a UMS profile configuration.
Please check in this readme which restrictions apply and how to switch the
versions.
================
Known issues:
================
[ICA/Citrix Receiver 12 and 13]
– Currently Kerberos is not supported, so Kerberos passthrough will not work
with ICA sessions and Citrix XenApp/StoreFront.
Workaround: configure “Passthrough authentication”

[ICA/Citrix Receiver 13]
– Smartcard authentication is supported for ICA sessions created on the IGEL
device (supported with Citrix servers up to version 6.5). Kerberos
passthrough and Citrix XenApp/StoreFront login are not supported.
– Only the “User name and password” StoreFront authentication method is supported.
– During Citrix XenApp/StoreFront logoff the logoff for running desktop sessions
does not work.
– Com-port redirection is not supported.
– Webcam redirection is not supported with H.264 hardware and software encoding,
still legacy theora encoding is supported.

================
New features:
================
[ICA/Citrix Receiver 13]
– Added Citrix Receiver 13.0.3.274243
– Added support for StoreFront
– Added support for SHA-2 certificates

Hints (It is IMPORTANT to read this, if you plan to use Citrix Receiver 13
instead of 12 and/or want to connect to a Citrix server version 7.x):
– This firmware contains two Citrix Receivers, but only one of them can be
active at a time. Default is Citrix Receiver 12. The version can be
switched by the new parameter “Use Citrix Receiver version 13” in the
IGEL setup at “Sessions->Citrix->Citrix Receiver Selection” (registry:
ica.useversion13). For Citrix Receiver 13 configuration setting the new
parameter “Citrix server version” is mandatory (see below).
– The new parameter “Citrix server version” on IGEL setup page
“Sessions->Citrix->Citrix XenApp/StoreFront->Server” (registry key:
ica.pnlogin.serverversion) defines the capabilities of the Receiver
accroding to the used Citrix server versions (default is “XenApp 6.x or
older”):
IMPORTANT FOR SERVER URL CONFIGURATION in the IGEL registry (With local
IGEL Setup or UMS 4.07.100 the server url is automatically stored at the
correct keys, if you use the provided setup page at
“Sessions->Citrix->Citrix XenApp/StoreFront->Server”):
Depending on the Citrix server version you have configured, different
sets of server url configurations apply:
* XenApp/XenDesktop 7.x Store:
For access to a Citrix Storefront:
registry keys ica.pnlogin.browseraddress_store<NR>.*
(optional: ica.pnlogin.browseraddress_store<NR>.farm)
* XenApp/XenDesktop 7.x Legacy Mode
For access to the legacy mode of a Citrix Storefront:
registry keys ica.pnlogin.browseraddress_store_legacy<NR>.*
(optional: ica.pnlogin.browseraddress_store_legacy<NR>.farm)
* XenApp 6.x or older:
For access to a XenApp Server:
registry keys ica.pnlogin.browseraddress<NR>.*
(optional: ica.pnlogin.browseraddress<NR>.farm)

– For Citrix StoreFront access with Citrix Receiver 13 only https web interfaces
are supported. If the SSL certificate of your Citrix server is not signed
by a trusted certificate authority (like Verigsign, Thawte etc.), you have to
install the root certificate of your own certificate authority on each Thin
Client.
Please use http://edocs.igel.com/index.htm#10200413.htm to access the document
on how to install SSL certificate.
– With Citrix Receiver 13 it is not possible to connect to a Citrix server
with other methods than the web interface (this affects the parameter
“Use Citrix XenApp Services Site” registry key: ica.pnlogin.useserversettings).
Due to that it is not possible to select another password change method than
“Citrix XenApp Services Site”.
– ICA sessions created on the IGEL device only work with Citrix XenApp servers up
to version 6.5.
– The parameter “Deferred update mode” has no effect anymore.
– The window options on IGEL setup page
“Sessions->Citrix->Citrix XenApp/StoreFront->Options” are not supported anymore.

Hints for the configuration on server side (for Citrix servers version 7.x):
– After installation and basic configuration of Machine Catalogs and Delivery
Groups, you end up with a store that uses http only. But the Citrix Receiver
13 for Linux supports stores with https only (the Windows version of Citrix
Receiver has this limitation, too; but it is possible to change some
registry keys on the client side to enable http support; unfortunately
this is not possible with the Linux version of Citrix Receiver).
– To switch the store to https, change the base URL on page “Server Group”
in the Citrix StoreFront Management Console.
– Then adjust the “Transport Type” in the “Manage Delivery Controllers”
dialog of the “Store” page in Citrix StoreFront Management Console.
– Then add a https binding for the website in the IIS Management Console
(you have to choose an SSL certificate in the corresponding dialog).
– Password change is disabled by default on a Citrix server 7.x. To enable it,
open the Citrix StoreFront Management Console and go to page
“Authentication”. Click on the authentication method “User name and
password” and then on “Manage Password Options” on the right pane.
– The error messages of Citrix servers 7.x and Citrix Receiver 13 are terribly
misleading. When you are using Citrix servers 7.x and you experience
problems with the connection itself or login, please double check
that everything is ok on the server side. It is a good thing to check the
overview page for a target machine in Citrix Studio. To get there, choose
“View Machines” in the context menu of a Delivery Group.
Then check for each machine:
– that the “Registration State” of the machine is “Registered”
– that the “Maintenance Mode” of the machine is “Off”
– that the “Power State” of the machine is “On”
– that you are using the correct user if there is a user
mentioned in the column “User”.
Also, if something does not work (although it really should), try to reboot
the Citrix server. In our tests this helped sometimes when we experienced
strange problems.

– With Citrix Receiver 13 the following codec parameters are available:
JPEG codec registry keys:
* ica.wfclient.directdecode
* ica.wfclient.batchdecode (enabled by default)

The H264 deep compression codec is not available in this release.

Detailed description of the parameters is available at:
http://support.citrix.com/proddocs/topic/receiver-linux-13-0/receiver-linux-13-0.html

[ICA/Citrix Receiver 12]
– Updated Citrix Receiver to version 12.5.1.234536

[ICA]
– For ICA sessions with workarea window mode: In multi monitor setups
the workarea window can be restricted to a single monitor now.
Configure “Start Monitor” at setup page:
“Sessions->Citrix->ICA Sessions->session name->Window”.
If the “Start Monitor” is configured to “No Configuration”, the session window
is expanded over all monitors without covering the taskbar.
– Improved Citrix XenApp/StoreFront session configuration
– Added new filter for desktop placement of Citrix XenApp applications
at Setup page “Sessions->Citrix->Citrix XenApp/StoreFront->Appearance”.
– Improved “Overwrite local Start Menu and desktop setting with server
setting” by separting parameter for start menu and desktop.
– Added autostart of sessions. The list of autostarted applications can be
defined at: “Sessions->Citrix->Citrix XenApp/StoreFront->Logon”.
Hint:
The autostart mechanism does not care about automatically reconnected
applications. To avoid this, the number of allowed running sessions
can be limited at server side.
– Added additional settings for protocol encryption
– At registry key “ica.module.encryption” you can disable encryption for
all ICA sessions
– At setup page “Sessions->Citrix->ICA Sessions->session name->Options” set
“Encryption Level” to “None” to disable encryption for individual ICA sessions.
(registry key: session.ica<NR>.appsrv.encryptionlevelsession)

[RDP]
– Updated to IGEL RDP Client 2.1 based on FreeRDP Client 1.1:
– Added support for RDP 8 based RemoteFX Adaptive Graphics virtual channel:
– Calista Codec (RemoteFX7)
– Progressive Codec
– Clear Codec
– Planar Codec
– Added H264 Video optimized remoting virtual channel
– Added support for audio recording capability
– Improved RemoteApp support
– Added support for Remote Desktop Web Access accessible at setup page
“Sessions->RDP->Remote Desktop Web Access”
– For compatibility reasons it is still possible to enable IGEL Legacy RDP
Client 1.0 at setup page “Sessions->RDP->RDP Global->Options->RDP legacy mode”.
IMPORTANT: The following features are not available:
– RDP 8 based RemoteFX support
– Remote Desktop Web Access
– Changed default authentication mode to support NLA authentication aside local logon
for automatic access to Windows Server 2008, 2008 R2, 2012 and 2012 R2.
You can disable local logon and network authentication at IGEL setup page
“Sessions->RDP->RDP Global->Local Logon”
(registry: rdp.login.use_rdplogin and rdp.login.enable-network-authentication)
– The RDP session window resolution can now be configured with custom resolutions at
IGEL setup page “Sessions->RDP->RDP Sessions->session name->Window”
(registry key: sessions.winconnect<NR>.option.resolution)
– Added a “RDP connection bar” in a fullscreen RDP session, to minimize and quit the session.
The feature can be enabled at IGEL setup page “Sessions->RDP->RDP Global->Window->Enable toolbar”
(registry key: rdp.winconnect.enable-toolbar)

[Imprivata]
– Updated bootstrap loader to version 1.0.230504

[VNC]
– Added VNC secure mode, based on a SSL-encrypted VNC connection. The SSL
connection uses a special certificate located in the directory /wfs/ca-certs.
This feature requires the Universal Management Suite (UMS) to be involved,
to handle the shadowing permissions and double check whether the connection
is allowed or not. In addition the UMS is used to assure a secure credential
exchange between the TC and the UMS console.
IMPORTANT: The UMS must have the version 4.07.100 or higher!
The feature can be enabled in IGEL setup at “System->Shadow->Secure Mode”
(registry key: network.vncserver.secure_mode, default: off)
– Added hide disconnect button configuration in the Remote Shadowing Indicator at setup page
“System->Shadow->Allow User to disconnect Remote Shadowing”
(registry key: “network.vncserver.showdisconnectbtn”, default: on).

Registry key: network.dhcp.user_class
The default value is empty and means that the option is not used.
Non-printable bytes can be specified as \ooo, where each o is an octal digit,
or \xhh, where each h is a hexadecimal digit.
‘\’ and ‘”‘ must be escaped by prepending ‘\’.
– Added parameters for DHCP client identifier options (see RFC 2132):
Registry keys:
* network.interfaces.ethernet.device0.dhcp_client_id
* network.interfaces.ethernet.device1.dhcp_client_id
* network.interfaces.wirelesslan.device0.dhcp_client_id
The default value is empty and means that the option is not used.
Non-printable bytes can be specified as \ooo, where each o is an octal digit,
or \xhh, where each h is a hexadecimal digit.
‘\’ and ‘”‘ must be escaped by prepending ‘\’. Example values:
\x00host.example.org (a FQDN with type byte 0 prepended),
\x01\x00\x11\x22\x33\x44\x55 (the MAC address 00:11:22:33:44:55 with type byte 1 prepended)

[base system]

Release: IGEL Universal Desktop LX / OS 5.03.100

Wednesday, April 30th, 2014

IGEL Universal Desktop OS 2
===========================
Version 5.03.100
Apr 30 2014

====================
Notes:
====================
IMPORTANT:
Dual monitor configuration for “unsupported hardware” works only if “native
driver support” works properly. It is a prerequisite to assure that the
native driver is really working, as the fallback VESA driver does not provide
any dual monitor configuration. Have a look at Application Launcher’s
About tab->Hardware-Graphics Chipset. If VESA is listed there the native
driver does not work and dual monitor configuration is not functional.

====================
Information:
====================
IMPORTANT: This releases integrates two Citrix Receiver versions 12 and 13.
You can only choose to run either of the versions.
The old 12 Citrix Receiver is still available for compatibility reasons and
activated by default. Version 13 of the Citrix Receiver can be activated at
the local setup of the device or through a UMS profile configuration.
Please check in this readme which restrictions apply and how to switch the
versions.

====================
Known issues:
====================
[ICA/Citrix Receiver 13]
– Currently Kerberos is not supported, so Kerberos passthrough will not work
with ICA sessions and Citrix XenApp/StoreFront.
Workaround: configure “Passthrough authentication”
– Smartcard authentication is supported for ICA sessions created on the IGEL
device (supported with Citrix servers up to version 6.5). Kerberos
passthrough and Citrix XenApp/StoreFront login are not supported.
– Only the “User name and password” StoreFront authentication method is supported.
– During Citrix XenApp/StoreFront logoff the logoff for running desktop sessions
does not work.
– Com-port redirection is not supported.
– Webcam redirection is not supported with H.264 hardware and software encoding,
still legacy theora encoding is supported.

[RDP]
– Fabulatech USB Redirection is not supported with IGEL Legacy RDP Client 1.0.
Please use IGEL RDP Client 2 – RDP legacy mode can be deactivated at
IGEL Setup -> Sessions -> RDP -> RDP Global -> Options page

[Quest vWorkspace]
– Multimedia Redirection:
Sound redirection is not working with WMV/WMA streams
– USB Redirection does not work reliable

[NVIDIA graphics support]
– In dual screen configurations DPMS monitor saving mode creates
display content corruptions on secondary VGA display after resume
====================
New features:
====================
[ICA/Citrix Receiver 13]
– Added Citrix Receiver 13.0.2
– Added support for StoreFront

Hints (It is IMPORTANT to read this, if you plan to use Citrix Receiver 13
instead of 12 and/or want to connect to a Citrix server version 7.x):
– This firmware contains two Citrix Receivers, but only one of them can be
active at a time. Default is Citrix Receiver 12. The version can be
switched by the new parameter “Use Citrix Receiver version 13” in the
IGEL setup at “Sessions->Citrix->Citrix Receiver Selection” (registry:
ica.useversion13). For Citrix Receiver 13 configuration setting the new
parameter “Citrix server version” is mandatory (see below).
– The new parameter “Citrix server version” on IGEL setup page
“Sessions->Citrix->Citrix XenApp/StoreFront->Server” (registry key:
ica.pnlogin.serverversion) defines the capabilities of the Receiver
accroding to the used Citrix server versions (default is “XenApp 6.x or
older”):
IMPORTANT FOR SERVER URL CONFIGURATION in the IGEL registry (With local
IGEL Setup or UMS 4.07.100 the server url is automatically stored at the
correct keys, if you use the provided setup page at
“Sessions->Citrix->Citrix XenApp/StoreFront->Server”):
Depending on the Citrix server version you have configured, different
sets of server url configurations apply:
* XenApp/XenDesktop 7.x Store:
For access to a Citrix Storefront:
registry keys ica.pnlogin.browseraddress_store<NR>.*
(optional: ica.pnlogin.browseraddress_store<NR>.farm)
* XenApp/XenDesktop 7.x Legacy Mode
For access to the legacy mode of a Citrix Storefront:
registry keys ica.pnlogin.browseraddress_store_legacy<NR>.*
(optional: ica.pnlogin.browseraddress_store_legacy<NR>.farm)
* XenApp 6.x or older:
For access to a XenApp Server:
registry keys ica.pnlogin.browseraddress<NR>.*
(optional: ica.pnlogin.browseraddress<NR>.farm)

– For Citrix StoreFront access with Citrix Receiver 13 only https web interfaces
are supported. If the SSL certificate of your Citrix server is not signed
by a trusted certificate authority (like Verigsign, Thawte etc.), you have to
install the root certificate of your own certificate authority on each Thin
Client.
Please use http://edocs.igel.com/index.htm#10200413.htm to access the document
on how to install SSL certificate.
– With Citrix Receiver 13 it is not possible to connect to a Citrix server
with other methods than the web interface (this affects the parameter
“Use Citrix XenApp Services Site” registry key: ica.pnlogin.useserversettings).
Due to that it is not possible to select another password change method than
“Citrix XenApp Services Site”.
– ICA sessions created on the IGEL device only work with Citrix XenApp servers up
to version 6.5.
– The parameter “Deferred update mode” has no effect anymore.
– The window options on IGEL setup page
“Sessions->Citrix->Citrix XenApp/StoreFront->Options” are not supported anymore.

Hints for the configuration on server side (for Citrix servers version 7.x):
– After installation and basic configuration of Machine Catalogs and Delivery
Groups, you end up with a store that uses http only. But the Citrix Receiver
13 for Linux supports stores with https only (the Windows version of Citrix
Receiver has this limitation, too; but it is possible to change some
registry keys on the client side to enable http support; unfortunately
this is not possible with the Linux version of Citrix Receiver).
– To switch the store to https, change the base URL on page “Server Group”
in the Citrix StoreFront Management Console.
– Then adjust the “Transport Type” in the “Manage Delivery Controllers”
dialog of the “Store” page in Citrix StoreFront Management Console.
– Then add a https binding for the website in the IIS Management Console
(you have to choose an SSL certificate in the corresponding dialog).
– Password change is disabled by default on a Citrix server 7.x. To enable it,
open the Citrix StoreFront Management Console and go to page
“Authentication”. Click on the authentication method “User name and
password” and then on “Manage Password Options” on the right pane.
– The error messages of Citrix servers 7.x and Citrix Receiver 13 are terribly
misleading. When you are using Citrix servers 7.x and you experience
problems with the connection itself or login, please double check
that everything is ok on the server side. It is a good thing to check the
overview page for a target machine in Citrix Studio. To get there, choose
“View Machines” in the context menu of a Delivery Group.
Then check for each machine:
– that the “Registration State” of the machine is “Registered”
– that the “Maintenance Mode” of the machine is “Off”
– that the “Power State” of the machine is “On”
– that you are using the correct user if there is a user
mentioned in the column “User”.
Also, if something does not work (although it really should), try to reboot
the Citrix server. In our tests this helped sometimes when we experienced
strange problems.

– With Citrix Receiver 13 there is support for new graphics codec parameters:
– H264 deep compression codec registry keys:
* ica.wfclient.h264enabled (disabled by default)
* ica.wfclient.texttrackingenabled
* ica.wfclient.smallframesenabled
The H264 codec is only usable if the multimedia codec pack is installed.
– JPEG codec registry keys:
* ica.wfclient.directdecode
* ica.wfclient.batchdecode (enabled by default)

Detailed description of the parameters are available at:
http://support.citrix.com/proddocs/topic/receiver-linux-13-0/receiver-linux-13-0.html and

[ICA/Citrix Receiver 12]
– Improved ICA sessions with Kerberos Passthrough: it is now possible to choose
the Kerberos implementation(s) which are used with Citrix via parameter
ica.module.virtualdriver.sspi.kerberosselection.

[RDP]
– Changed default authentication mode to support NLA authentication aside local logon
for automatic access to Windows Server 2008, 2008 R2, 2012 and 2012 R2.
You can disable local logon and network authentication at IGEL setup page
“Sessions->RDP->RDP Global->Local Logon”
(registry: rdp.login.use_rdplogin and rdp.login.enable-network-authentication)
– IGEL RDP 2 only:
– Improved RDP remote apps
– correct positioning of drop down windows
– improved window maximizing and minimizing
– fixed display errors
– Added support for audio recording capability
– Improved RD Web Access:
Added support for the following options at IGEL setup page “Sessions->RDP->RDP Global”:
– Mapping (everything)
– Performance (RemoteFX only)
– Options (Inverted cursor color only)
– Native USB Redirection
– Multimedia Redirection .
– Added RDP session resolution with random settings.
– Added a “RDP connection bar” in a fullscreen RDP sessions, to minimize and quit the session.
The feature can be enabled at IGEL setup page “Sessions->RDP->RDP Global->Window->Enable toolbar”
(registry key: rdp.winconnect.enable-toolbar)

[ICA/RDP]
– Added new method to define multiple USB serial devices:
“Sessions->Citrix->ICA Global->Mapping->COM Ports->COM Port Devices”
(registry: ica.wfclient.comport<NR>)
“Sessions->RDP->RDP Global->Mapping->COM Ports->COM Port Devices”
(registry: rdp.winconnect.comport<NR>)
“Devices->Printer->CUPS->Printers->Printers”
(registry: print.cups.printer<NR>.serial_device)
For RDP and ICA COM Port Mapping, serial printers, USB serial devices
can be defined through USB vendor and device ID. This is done in the format
/dev/usbserial/ttyUSB_Vxxxx_Pyyyy, where xxxx and yyyy are the USB vendor
and product IDs in lower case hexadecimal digits (4 digits each).
In the IGEL Setup running on the thin client currently available devices
will be shown when pressing the “Detect Devices…” button.
– Updated Philips Speech Drivers to version 12.0.9

[VMware Horizon View]
– Updated VMware Horizon View to version 2.3.0-1551379
– Added Realtime Audio Video (RTAV) support. Can be activated in IGEL setup at
“Sessions->Horizon View Client Global->Real Time Audio Video”
– Added switch for “Ctrl+Alt+Insert” redirection to VM. Depending on server
configuration either “Ctrl+Alt+Insert”, “Ctrl+Alt+Delete” or no action can be triggered.
The registry key is located at “vmware.view.sendctrlaltinstovm” (default is false).
– For passthrough authentication added possibility to use the shortened domain name
instead of the fully qualified domain name, like “EXAMPLE” instead of “EXAMPLE.COM”.
Enable shortened domain name for a particular session with registry key
sessions.vdm_client<NR>.options.passthrough_shortdomain

[VPN]
– Added NCP Secure Enterprise client version 3.25-rev15580-i686

[WiFi]
– Updated all WiFi drivers backported from 3.13.2 Linux kernel,
new support for dual Band 2.4GHz/5Ghz wireless USB adapters
based on Ralink RT3572 chipset.
For other new supported devices, please check 3rd party hardware database.
– Added support for self service WiFi connections (Cafe Wireless):
The user can manage and select WiFi connections via the WiFi tray icon’s context menu.
This feature is disabled by default. It can be enabled at IGEL setup page
“Network->LAN Interfaces->Wireless->Enable wireless manager” (registry:
network.applet.wireless.enable_connection_editor)
– Added new parameters for better control of WiFi roaming capabilities with access
points that share the same SSID:
* network.interfaces.wirelesslan.device0.lock_initial: Default: false
If true the device will stick to the access point it is connected to
even if candidates with better signal quality are present.
Setting this parameter to true is a last resort for problems that are caused by
too much roaming.
* network.interfaces.wirelesslan.device0.bgscan.module: Default: “none”
These settings should be changed by experts only.
Selection of the bgscan (“background scan”) module used by wpa_supplicant
in the cases of WPA Enterprise and WPA2 Enterprise.
If the parameter “lock_initial” is set to true, it is recommended that this be “none”.
Possible values:
– “none”:
No background scanning is done.
– “simple”:
The WiFi module tries to scan for a potentially better fitting AP in the background.
The simple module has the following parameters (default values are those
hardcoded in NetworkManager 0.9.4.0):
* network.interfaces.wirelesslan.device0.bgscan.simple.signal_strength: (default: -45)
This defines a threshold that determines which of the following two parameters
shall be effective.
A signal level (dBm) is expected.
* network.interfaces.wirelesslan.device0.bgscan.simple.short_interval: (default: 30)
Interval between background scans in seconds if the actual signal level
of the currently connected access point is worse than
network.interfaces.wirelesslan.device0.bgscan.simple.signal_strength.
* network.interfaces.wirelesslan.device0.bgscan.simple.long_interval: (default: 300)
Interval between background scans in seconds if the actual signal level
of the currently connected access point is better than
network.interfaces.wirelesslan.device0.bgscan.simple.signal_strength.
– Added new parameters that control WiFi roaming between WiFi networks with different SSIDs:
* network.interfaces.wirelesslan.device0.mssid_check_interval: (default: 10)
The interval in seconds between checking if automatic roaming might be neccessary.
This includes detecting that a connection has been lost and a new one should be
established..
* network.interfaces.wirelesslan.device0.mssid_quality_threshold: (default: 20)
If the current connection’s quality percentage is below this value
scanning will be performed to find a potentially better network.
* network.interfaces.wirelesslan.device0.mssid_quality_difference_threshold: (default: 40)
A candidate for automatic roaming is only considered if its quality percentage
is this much better than the current connection’s quality.
* network.interfaces.wirelesslan.device0.mssid_previously_used_threshold: (default: 55)
During boot: If the previously used SSID’s quality percentage is above this threshold
it is preferred.
* network.interfaces.wirelesslan.device0.mssid_user_selection: Default: false
If true, the user can initiate roaming to a network via the WiFi tray icon’s context menu.
(The context menu must be enabled.).
If automatic roaming shall not interfere with the user’s choice, the following
values are appropriate:
network.interfaces.wirelesslan.device0.mssid_quality_threshold=0
network.interfaces.wirelesslan.device0.mssid_quality_difference_threshold=101
network.interfaces.wirelesslan.device0.mssid_previously_used_threshold=0

[Network]
– Added network-related system tray icons, one per device and VPN controlled with
the following settings:
Wired:
* IGEL setup “Network/Lan Interfaces->Interface[1,2]->Enable tray icon”
(registry: network.applet.lan[1,2].enable_trayicon):
Defines whether the tray icon is shown or not (default: enabled)
* IGEL setup “Network/Lan Interfaces->Interface[1,2]->Enable context menu”
(registry: network.applet.lan[1,2].enable_context_menu):
Switches the the context menu on or off (default: enabled)
* IGEL setup “Network/Lan Interfaces->Interface[1,2]->Enable network info dialog”
(registry: network.applet.lan[1,2].enable_network_info_dialog):
Switches access to the info dialog on or off (i.e. IP address) (default: enabled)

====================
Fixed bugs:
====================
[ICA/Citrix Receiver 12]
– Fixed Citrix XenApp matching of application names in ICA autostart list
– Fixed Citrix XenApp refresh command.
– Fixed display of user name in screen lock/unlock dialog,
if Citrix XenApp password is synchronized with screen lock password.

[ICA/Citrix Receiver 13]
– Added support for “BypassSetLED” parameter:
registry key ica.wfclient.bypasssetled, Fixed issue with enabled key:
when a published application is configured to run a macro on one of the LED keys
(Caps Lock, Num Lock, or Scroll Lock), pressing the key can cause the macro to
run multiple times.

[XenDesktop Appliance]
– Fixed a minor bug with german keyboard layout and numblock DEL key.

[RDP]
– Fixed RDP native USB redirection device rules:
Product and vendor IDs need to be entered in hexadecimal now (decimal is not
supported anymore).
Streamlined with all other USB redirection rules.
– Fixed RemoteFX codec if “Legacy mode” is enabled:
– crash of RDP sessions to Windows 8 RDVH
– wrong rendering in RDP sessions with Server 2012
– Fixed logon with Gemalto .net cards and Windows Server 2008

[VMware Horizon View]
– Fixed smart card redirection in Horizon View with RDP protocol

[Quest vWorkspace]
– Fixed fullscreen sessions started from web interface.
Additional screen dimensions defined in the websession config are ignored.
– Fixed bug for SSL secured gateway/nat/proxy settings

[PowerTerm]
– Fixed setting “Autosave Size and Position” to not send thin client settings
to UMS at termination of session any more. Instead keep size and position
stored locally on thin client.

[Imprivata]
– Fixed imprivata appliance mode to work with dual screen settings in Citrix,
if the setting “ICA->ICA Global->Window->Multi Monitor Fullscreen Mode” is enabled.

[WiFi]
– Fixed support for PCI WLAN adapter based on Ralink RT3091.

[Network]
– Fixed wrong netmask in the network information dialog of the network tray icon.

[Smartcard]
– Fixed bug in smart card service pcsc-lite: When entering the smart card PIN
with certain PIN pad readers inside an ICA session, the PIN input window was
not displayed correctly.
– Fixed SCM Microsystems/Identive smart card readers: handle older reader models
with driver version 5.0.21, only new ones with 5.0.27.
This fixes problems with old readers in driver version 5.0.27.
– Implemented SCARD_ATTR_CURRENT_PROTOCOL_TYPE in pcsc-lite;
this helps smart card log on with SafeSign minidriver

[ThinPrint]
– improved the “default” mark of a printer configured in IGEL Setup
“Devices->Printer->Thinprint->Printer”.

[base system]
– Fixed OpenSSL Heartbleed bug: CVE-2014-0160,
security patches for CVE-2014-0092,CVE-2014-1959,CVE-2013-4242.
– Fixed system suspend/resume caps-lock/scroll-lock modifiers reset.
– Fixed Kerberos authentication:
when typing a wrong password at log on or screen saver unlock, badPwdCount in
Active Directory was incremented by 2 instead of 1 and thus the account was
locked too soon.
– Fixed smart card logon to a Windows 2003 Server based Active Directory.
In this case the parameter “auth.krb5.realms.pkinit.pkinit_win2k” has to be set.
– Fixed non native resolutions with VIA VX800/VX855 graphic chipsets:
the desktop is expanded over the whole screen again.
– Fixed custom partition: For downloading via FTP over SSL use explicit FTPS
instead of implicit FTPS.
– Fixed disappearing of network connection dialog, if no pointer device is connected.
– Fixed VIA graphics chipsets for dual monitor configuration with autodetected
resolutions and manual connector assignment
– Fixed SW cursor support with VIA graphics chips
– Fixed special character % in desktop folder names
– Improved handling of Lock keys in VNC Server. All modifiers will be cleared by default
when shadowing is started. Lock keys are handled on client side only by default.
(registry: network.vncserver.clear_all and network.vncserver.skip_lockkeys)

[Java]
– Fixed smartcard access used in java webstart UMS.

Release: IGEL Universal Desktop LX / OS Version 5.02.100

Monday, December 23rd, 2013

IGEL Universal Desktop OS 2
===========================
Version 5.02.100
Dec 20 2013

====================
Notes:
====================
IMPORTANT:
Dual monitor configuration for “unsupported hardware” works only if “native
driver support” works properly. It is a prerequisite to assure that the
native driver is really working, as the fallback VESA driver does not provide
any dual monitor configuration. Have a look at Application Launcher’s
About tab->Hardware-Graphics Chipset. If VESA is listed there the native
driver does not work and dual monitor configuration is not functional.

Release: Universal Desktop Converter 2.0 (5.01.110)

Wednesday, October 9th, 2013

Hello Folks,

the new Version of the Universal Desktop Converter is available for download, please note that you have to download the UDC2Stick_5.01.110.zip from the myigel.biz website. Also don’t forget that you must use new licenses if you want to deploy the UDC 2 Firmware to devices. See also my older post: https://blog.cloud-client.info/2013/10/02/information-upgrade-igel-linux-v4-to-igel-linux-v5/

 

After you downloaded the archive you can extract it and deploy the new IGEL Linux with the included .iso file or you can upgrade/create a USB Memory to install the new IGEL Linux.

But please: Old licenses will not work! Not all older devices are supported anymore! Read the release notes and test devices that you want to install with the UDC in advance to make sure that everything is working fine.

Cheers

Michael

P.S.: A new UDC Deployment Appliance Version 3.1 is also available now, this tool can be used to deploy the UDC in smaller environments via the network.

First experience with the new IGEL Linux V5 (upgrade)

Thursday, October 3rd, 2013

Hello Folks,

today i’ve upgraded my first bunch of UD3 and UD5 devices with the new IGEL Linux V5.

After i put the content coming with the upgrade pack on our IIS and also an USB memory i run the upgrade thru network and also from the USB Memory. It works quite well and i got no issues during the update and here are some of my first screenshots. I’ve updated several UD3 and UD5 single/dual core devices (see supported device list), so not only a “one” device test, also it’s important that you can NOT use the buddy update feature to perform the upgrade!

IGEL Linux V5: New Linux Desktop look

IGEL Linux V5: New Linux Desktop look

After the Upgrade you will directly boot into the new GUI which looks very stylish, the screen above was taken from a device which i’ve set back to factory defaults but i also got no issues with devices without a reset back to factory defaults.

IGEL Linux V5: New RemoteFX settings for Windows8/Server 2012 RDS

IGEL Linux V5: New RemoteFX settings for Windows8/Server 2012 RDS

For my test i first setup a RemoteFX session to a Windows 8 environment, in the screen above you see some of the new RDP settings for RemoteFX. Please be aware, if you’re using the UMS Version 4.04.110 or older you have to configure these new settings thru System->Registry in a Profile optimized for the IGEL Linux V5 (5.01.xxx).

IGEL Linux V5: New Session display Options

IGEL Linux V5: New Session display Options

Be also aware that sessions have now in general more display options (where should the session be shown for the user) and that you’ve also more Sessions available in the Accessories Tab in the IGEL Setup. I strongly recommend to configure and prepare this before rolling out the new Firmware, in general you can also use/upgrade your old Profiles for Linux V4 to Linux V5 without any issues. One add-on, please note the new Remote Desktop Web Access feature in the left Setup Menu… 🙂

 

IGEL Linux V5: Running a RemoteFX Session as window

IGEL Linux V5: Running a RemoteFX Session as window

Last but not least a small test with my RemoteFX session, in general the new Linux V5 looks very good and you should get a look on it.

IGEL Linux V5: Running DATI (ILISE) V1.06 Custom Partition Sample Conky

IGEL Linux V5: Running DATI (ILISE) V1.06 Custom Partition Sample Conky

The last thing i want to test are the cloud-client.info custom partition samples and the custom partition packages created with our Deployment Assistant Tool for IGEL Thin Clients (DATI/ILISE), i run several samples and never got an issue. This solution is still not supported by IGEL Technology but if you already use it, you don’t have to be afraid that the packages are not working anymore, this includes upgrading a device where these packages are already used.

 

So from my side i will strictly go with IGEL Linux V5 in the future and after i run some more test to check all features and functions, i will also release a new UMS Template and UMS Virtual Appliance after the new final Universal Management Suite Version is released.

I also added a couple of FAQ’s to the cloud-client.info FAQ Area, it’s still more to do but it should cover already some open questions.

 

 

Have Fun

Michael
