* Added the ALSA sound driver for Linux. It's now the
  preferred choice over OSS.
* Fixed another bug in the ./configure script if the
  SDL library is missing.
* The sound latency is now automatically increased if the game
  requires a big frame skip.
* The auto frameskip is now optimized to minimize the idle
  waiting time instead of getting a 100% speed.

  to control any artwork types.
* Added the `misc_difficulty' option to select the game
  difficulty from the command line.
* The `misc_quiet' option now also disable the NO GOOD DUMP
  messages.
* The SVGALIB `banshee' driver in Linux now doesn't tries to
  use 16 bit video modes. They are not working.
* The `misc_quiet' options, if activated, skips also the graphics
  information screens.
* If the doublescan modes are disabled, a mode with a double
  vertical size is automatically used instead.
