In response to Tim Mann's suggestions:- Compiling gnuchess for SunOS 4.1.3 I have recently obtained gcc version 2.4.5 which allows the CFLAGS -traditional-cpp option for compiling gnuchess version 4.0.70. Now when I run gnuchess I don't get the FIONREAD error that I used to get with if I compiled with gcc verison 1.4. However I still have some problems:- i) On one occasion when playing with xboard version 3.1.1, I could not mate the black king -- it simply captured my checking piece. xboard did respond though saying that gnuchess had made an illegal move. Is gnuchess a bad loser? ii) On loading a saved game, and resuming play, I have found that xboard locks up when its my turn to move Are these faults known? David
