Bugzilla Bug 196564

vice 1.21-r1 is compiled with --enable-fullscreen, which is hardcoded (!) in
the ebuild. If you run Xorg without xrandr, the emulator does not start at all.
I "fixed" this by manually changing --enable-fullscreen to --disable-fullscreen

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

please attach your emerge --info output and reopen

> please attach your emerge --info output and reopen
I don't see of what use this could be as this is a clear error in the
ebuild-file, but here you go:

What's the command that's failing?

> What's the command that's failing?
x128 and x64 are what I've tested. Both say:
Xrandr not available
Exiting...

"Xrandr not available" doesn't see to appear in the source so please post the
whole output of trying to run /usr/games/bin/x128

Also, please try 1.22 and see if that works better for you.

works fine for me with no xrandr to be found on my system.

need info

Did so.

Sorry for replying so late, -ENOTIME ;-)

Exactly the same issue occurs with =app-emulation/vice-2.1 and suggested ebuild
patch by the original submitter fixes the problem.
