Public bug reported: Binary package hint: zsnes
There is a bug in the threading code of zsnes which causes sound to work intermittently on multi-core systems which use libao for sound output. For me sound worked about half the time. I've attached a debdiff which fixes this problem. In the zsnes forums, this problem was first mentioned here: http://board.zsnes.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=10918 later, zsnes unofficially released 1.51b which fixed this threading issue, as well as fixed build issues with gcc 4.3+. http://board.zsnes.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=11513 The attached debdiff brings the code up to match what's in the 1.51b package. Alternatively, we could rebuild the package based directly on the 1.51b original package, but that would mean diverging more from debian's package. ** Affects: zsnes (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- zsnes sound works intermittently on multi-core systems https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/332794 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
