Package: mpg123 Version: 0.59r-20sarge1 Severity: wishlist
Debian mpg123 package includes a 3dnow! patch from Kimura Takuhiro. This patch makes mpg123 produce a much better quality ouput than the default 3dnow! code shipped with mpg123 0.59r Besides this, it also introduces a runtime detection for 3dnow!, so the same binary can work in a CPU without this instruction set. From the README.3DNOW file: - automatic detect 3DNow! support CPU from CPUFLAGS (getcpuflags.s) (i.e. use floating-pointer decode routine if your CPU isn't support 3DNow! or MMX instructions) This way, I think that the package mpg123-oss-3dnow is not needed anymore. You can enable 3dnow by default in the mpg123 package. As a nice side effect, users of mpg123-esd could benefit for 3dnow! support without having to recompile the package (that's what I have been doing for years). -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.16 Locale: LANG=pt_PT, LC_CTYPE=pt_PT (charmap=ISO-8859-15) (ignored: LC_ALL set to [EMAIL PROTECTED]) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
