Quite a lot of changes to the command line/engine interface were made in 5.04. Did you get version 5 working before 5.04 with icsdrone? Do you start it with "gnuchess xboard" ? > I'm not sure if this is due to GNU chess or icsDrone, but has anyone > else watched this behaviour and have some settings I could try?
