General User Interface Changes

  • CTL-Q terminates ddcui (does not apply within dialog boxes)
  • Errors opening /dev/i2c and /dev/usb/hiddev devices are reported using a message box instead of being written to the terminal. These errors typically reflect lack of permissions (Linux error EACCESS).
  • Optionally requiring the control key to be pressed when changing feature values now applies to all changes, not just those made using sliders. (The option is set using command line option --require-control-key or the UI Options dialog box.).

Feature Value Handling

  • For simple NC values, do not include the SH field in validation when changing a value. It has been observed that there exist monitors (e.g. Dell U4320) for which the high order byte of feature x60 (Input Source) can be non-zero.

EBUSY Errors

  • As of libddcutil release 1.3.0, the shared library has been modified to avoid the code path in driver i2c-dev that can produce EBUSY errors. Options --force-slave-address and --disable-force-slave-address, introduced in Release 0.2.1, are deprecated and no longer have any effect. For details see Device Busy (EBUSY) Errors in the release notes for ddcutil 1.3.0.

For a more detailed description of the changes in this release, see file CHANGELOG.md in the source tree or section ddcui Release Notes on the web site.
