Release id #164858 : VICE 3.2

So, finally, we pushed it out. The GTK3 port isn't 100% done yet, but usable enough for testing it. It has a couple known issues and open ends - which are listed here: http://vice-emu.pokefinder.org/index.php/Todo#GTK3_UI - grab experimental binaries here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/vice-emu/files/experimental%20..

Due to the massive amount of features, we need help with testing the damn thing, especially on platforms other than linux.

It would also be great if those who offered to set up nightly builds for OSX would step up and do it :)

Awesome guys! Still hunting for the Mac-slowdown and fixing automated builds.

Testing on Win10x86...
Vice crashes when I try to go to ROM settings.

Same here on a Win7 VM. Please open a ticket at https://sourceforge.net/p/vice-emu/bugs/ so we can have look at why this happens.

Of course hooking up a debugger and posting the backtrace would be very helpful.

Never mind, some idiot (me) forgot to properly terminate a list of drive expansion ROMS, leading to a segfault. Fixed in trunk.
Thanks for reporting, one less bug :)

Great work!

One small "issue" (SDL1 build on Linux): when switching to Debug border mode, the window changes size from 719x544 to 823x544. It would be preferrable that the window size be expanded in both dimensions so as to keep the same smooth scaling factor used in normal border mode. In older VICE versions the window did not change size at all, so it is kind of an improvement, just wondering why it's just partially expanded?

the main reason is likely: noone tests with SDL1 on linuks :)

Why do 8580 low basses fart that much without digiboost? Unless I don't play $d418 samples, I use 8580+digiboost setting - otherwise it's painful to listen to anything with lows :( I don't understand what happens to sound emulation with each new release - it plainly sucks and has nothing to do with real SID distortion. Sorry, guys - I rarely switch into Ian Coog's school of critique but this is quite frustrating :D

This. It's ridiculously broken.

the one ridiculous thing with those reSID bugs is... that a bunch of people prefer whining (a lot) over doing anything that might help to fix them. guess what will happen.
