General:


GNU-safe libroot.so
SiS bugfix for SetCursor : address bit was not reset to 0

The Keymap preference app now shows a visual indication
that unmapped keys are being depressed.

(not currently in this update)
***
Debugging calls removed from several drivers, which should eliminate
some of the 'kernel debugger crash on reboot' problems people have been
reporting.
***

Printing bugfixes:
The print_server is now smart and doesn't try to reprint failed  
jobs, which often leads to an infinite loop (boot, reprint, crash, boot,  
reprint, crash...). It's now possible to *manually* retry a failed job. 
Another important thing is that the Canon drivers should work perfectly well  
now (the print_server used to never see that a printjob was Completed).
General memory leaks and the like patched. 
Improved Epson support.  Added support for Stylus 900. 


Interface Kit:

Fix BSlider::Position() to be correct when MinValue() < 0. 
Fix BListView's "stuck mouse down" problem. 


Media: 
IMA fixes.
BDataIO stuff for writers.  Now we can write to a buffer instead of just a file.


1) WAV writer would needlessly generate modern-format WAV files  
   that don't work on W98SE or previous versions of Windows. 
2) WAV writer would screw up if you left byte_order as wildcard. 
3) AIFF writer would screw up if you left byte_order as wildcard.

4) YUV decoder: Make sure you can get YCbCr data out from an AVI even if  
you don't specify a row_bytes.	

NetPositive:
SSL License has expired; SSL code removed in Personal Edition, but new 128 bit e
ncryption added to Pro Edition.
<6/14/00: Affects new binaries only; this patch does change SSL>

Tracker & Deskbar:
Bug fixes and new features from OpenTracker
