  Don't send bugreports private, directly to author's address!!!
  We are working together on code, so everyone is interested in it.
! Btw many times other users know the solution (system config probs,
  bad drivers etc), even when we think it's a bug in our code.

*** 4,13 ****
  Special system/cpu-specific bugs/problems:
  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
! 1. SIGILL (signal 4) in draw_frame, on P3 (mostly 2.2.x kernels):
    Problem: movups is crashing in libvo/fastmemcpy.h
    Workaround:  ./configure --disable-fastmemcpy
  
  2. No image (black image) in RGB 16bpp (x11,dga,fbdev,svga) playing
!    MPEG files on SMP machine:
    Problem: bug(?) in MMX YV12->RGB16 converter code
    Workaround: ./configure --disable-mmx

  people to test fixes and send us as many system details information as
  possible (kernel+libc+gcc+binutils version, test results, /proc/cpuinfo etc)
! because they are system-dependent problems and aren't reproducable here.
! Please tell me if you can fix them or you are only user.
  Unfortunately we can't reproduce these here, so it's very hard to fix.

    Workaround:  mplayer -abs option
  - slow machine (cpu or vga)
!   try with -vo null, if it plays well, then you has slow VGA card/driver:
    Workaround: buy a faster card or read DOCS/VIDEOCARDS about how to speed up

     used: you must specify the -vm and the -fs switch, and you're done.
     Make sure you have the right Modelines in your XF86Config file, and
!    try if the DGA driver works for you. It's much faster.
  
  Q: audio goes out of sync playing .avi file

  5. Use '-vo dga' option, and there you go! (hope so:)
+ 6. Try if the '-vo sdl -sdl dga' options work for you! It's much faster!!!
  
  If you have fast enough CPU (P3 800 for example) you can try fsdga for
