Hi, I am new to linux (second day) and every time I follow the instructions 
to setup gnu chess I get the same message:

1. I type autoconf like the install tells me and I get this response:

[haydenth@haydenth chess-5.02]$ cd src
[haydenth@haydenth src]$ autoconf
configure.in:32: warning: AC_TRY_RUN called without default to allow cross 
compiling

And It doesn't let me do any of the following steps!

help me please, i really want to play this!

-tom-

p.s. if you have any idea how to setup an aureal sound card in linux too, 
help me please~!
