New in ThinLinc 4.1.0 (Jun 28, 2013)
- Compatibility with Mac OS X 10.8 has been improved. (4366, 4368)
- Client window placement has been improved in multi monitor environments. It should now avoid crossing monitor edges, and the session will always be displayed on the same monitor as the login window. (3892, 4275)
- Sessions are now dynamically resized as the local client window is resized. Previously a reconnect was required to resize the session. (3673)
- A performance issue on AMD Bobcat CPUs has been identified and fixed. These CPUs are found in several recent terminals. (4328)
- The installation programs for the Windows client are now signed, increasing security on that platform. (2075)
- The Java client applet is now signed with a trusted certificate. This avoids unnecessary security warnings. (4402)
- A security issue in the Java client has been resolved. The PAM account checks were not properly performed, allowing users with locked accounts to log in. (4460)
- Support for Thinstation has been updated from version 2 to version 5. (4318, 4349)
- The client now better supports systems that have case sensitive user names. Previously, the client always converted the user name to lowercase. This is now optional, and the default is not to alter the name. Please note: this means that in some configurations, the user name field in the earlier client was perceived as case insensitive, while the new version will require correct case. (2197)
- Edge scrolling, also known as bump scrolling, has been restored when the client is in full screen mode. This feature was lost in ThinLinc 3.2.0. (4343)

- Support for new platforms, such as Windows 2008 R2 and the latest Linux distributions from Red Hat and Ubuntu.
