I'm trying to get xboard and gnuchess working together on a Sun Sparc 
Station 2.  It's running on SunOS4.1.3.

I've had no problem getting xboard to run in the internetChessServerMode or
with the -ncp option.  Also I'm
able to run gnuchessx by itself.  When I try to run the two together with the 
command 'xboard' (ics mode False in my .Xdefaults file), the xboard pops up 
and acts like the game is over, and I get the following error messages:

   xboard: first chess program (gnuchessx) exited unexpectedly (pipe signal)
   xboard: error reading from second chess program (gnuchessx): Broken pipe

To begin with, I don't understand why it is looking for the 2nd chess program.
Really xboard's documentation on how to run just one chess program (user vs. 
gnuchess) is not very clear.  It says how to specify the names of programs only,not whether to run the 2nd program or not.  (I get the same errors when I run 
'xboard -fcp gnuchessx'.) 

The executables of both xboard and gnuchessx are in the same directory, which 
the path is set to.  I haven't investigated all the compilation options for 
xboard and gnuchess, and the only thing I changed in the gnuchess Makefile was 
to set the BINDIR to bin directory I just mentioned.

Please reply to this newsgroup or to jrcomeau@ccwf.cc.utexas.edu

Thanks,
