Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: vice

Vice simply doesn't work at all for me.  I've downloaded and installed
the ROM images already, but all of the various machines (x64, x128,
xpet, etc) return the same result.  The program simply displays a few
messages and exits:

=======================
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ x64
Set fontpath: `xset fp+ /usr/lib/vice/fonts'.
*** VICE Version 1.22 ***

Welcome to x64, the free portable C64 Emulator.

X11: Found 24bit visual.

=======================

What should happen:

The normal behavior of VICE is to dump a bunch of debug information to
the console, initialize its configuration directory (if it doesn't exist
yet), and initialize the emulated machine, which should normally start
with a window filled with colored garbage which gets replaced quickly
with the standard startup screen for the machine in question (X64, C128,
etc).  The emulator will normally ask me if I wish to save the machine
settings on exit, which I assume is when the actual config files are
created.
