Yay! :-) It was already installed! Just didn't knew the name of the
program. :-)

Still problems to run it. It wants a kernal rom. Cannot figure out the
syntax.

vsid -kernal /usr/lib/vice/C64/kernal Music/sids/Sanxion.sid

throws errors. Would like to add it to the .vicerc. Anyone has a snipped
of her/his setup concerning vsid?

Don't want to install extra software if installed programs can already play
SID files.

On the old machine there was also VLC which plays SID files. Not installing
it on the new machine.
