I found that I could change the size of Xboard.....the biggest I can get with a clock is middling....but that's big enough for me...:) I think it's because I have myown kernel and have compiled for my special graphics card and use very high resolution.....I'll try some of the hints you gave though...but as I said I can finally get the infamous chess clocks with my gnuchess now....:) I also downloaded something called Crafty...what do you think about that..?? Thanks again Daniel
