VICE beta testers - anyone?

Hi.

Everybody who wants to test current developer release (with several bugs fixed that were reported in the C64 Emulator bugs thread) should send me a private message here in CSDB or a mail to a.matthiesNOSPAM@online.de

Beta testers should be practiced in using VICE and its options and know about Gropaez buglist and its "rules of thumb" to avoid reporting already known or "wrong settings" bugs. The main goal should be regression testing.

I will send a (link to a) Windows binary and source archive with some information about fixed and known bugs.

I don't know it it's worth to setup a download folder for this. Maybe I will send the beta via mail. First I want to see how many (and WHO) want to test VICE.

No MacOS X binary? I have lots of issues after upgrading to Leopard, probably due to the new X server :/

Unfortunately I can't help test this time, as I'm moving on wednesday and I won't have an internet connection for at least a week. I'll gladly test the next release though.

Our mastermind Andreas Boose isn't a friend of public repositories but he agrees on releasing a test version for selected users with appropriate knowledge so lets take this as an opportunity for testing.

I'm back online, and would love to give the new mac release a spin, as the current version is unusable - I'm using an old build of AquaVICE under Rosetta at the moment...

>Rubi: Cannot reproduce. Works perfectly in 1.22. Is this bad as it should fail just like on a C64C?


dont bother with this - its unstable. i have seen it work in Hoxs64 and have been able to make it crash in vice by loading it manually.

d64 can't be chosen to autostart. using * to show all files works but its not very convenient.

Ah, that's a positive move, I appreciate that!
By the way, I wondered if you could set PNG as the default driver for the Alt+C dialog. I figure that's being used in the majority of cases and it sucks a bit having to select it every time I start Vice.
