1 Making and sending bugreports | |
2 ============================= | |
3 Consider the following things before writing a bug-report. | |
4 | |
5 1. Type of the bug: | |
6 | |
7 - Sound-distortion? | |
8 | |
9 This may not be directly XMMS-SID bug, but more like SIDPlay bug. | |
10 Check the SID-tune with SIDPlay commandline player. If the problem | |
11 shows up there, you should check that the tune itself is not | |
12 corrupted (or it may even be that it _should_ sound like that). | |
13 | |
14 The High Voltage SID Collection (HVSC) and SID Tune Information List | |
15 (STIL) homepages contain tips and guidelines for SID-tune rippers + | |
16 information on bugged tunes. | |
17 | |
18 If the tune that sounds bad is available on HVSC, compare it with | |
19 the one available from latest version of HVSC. Read the HVSC buglists | |
20 and other informations (the STIL database contains info about bugged | |
21 tunes) | |
22 | |
23 Ultimately you should check the tune on a REAL C64, but since many of | |
24 the younger computer users don't even have the real thing, this may | |
25 be impossible. (If the tune works on REAL C64, i.e. NOT EMULATOR!!!! | |
26 it may be a bug in SIDPlay) | |
27 | |
28 | |
29 - Segfault? | |
30 | |
31 Again, check the tune on commandline SIDPlay. If it also segfaults, | |
32 report the bug to SIDPlay author, Michael Schwendt. | |
33 | |
34 If it does NOT segfault with commandline SIDPlay, report it to me (ccr). | |
35 See README for contacting information. | |
36 | |
37 - New feature? | |
38 | |
39 Well, check on the commandl... ehh. :-) | |
40 | |
41 Send the suggestions, shit, hatemail, patches and your valuables to | |
42 ccr/TNSP, contacting information available on README. | |
43 | |
44 | |
45 | |
46 2. Example-layout for bug-reports | |

49 use your own, or put in additional information. | |
