I have built gnuchess4.0pl68 and pl69 on a sparcstation running Solaris 2.x.  While
both versions run in ascii mode (gnuchessr), when I run either from xboard, the game
progresses through the openings library but "hangs" when gnuchess has to think of
a move.  By hangs, I mean it just keeps on thinking and thinking.  The xboard clock
expires it still keeps thinking.  I have checked that gnuchessx is still running - it
is, and xboard knows about it (if you kill it xboard complains).

So any ideas why gnuchessx is so unwilling to make a move?

Many thanks,

Tony
