I says "exec of gnuchess failed". A followup to my own posting... wschmidt@cs.tamu.edu has pointed out the known "beep" problem with 3.1 and chesstool on sun. Thanks and the results are that I can now run 3.1 under chesstool. However I still can't run 3.1 under nchess. I get "exec of gnuchessr failed" from nchess. The funny thing is, /usr/games/ chess, the unix chess works under nchess and when I run gnuchessr by hand, not under chesstool, it runs exactly like unix chess. Eg. coquina <265> gnuchessr Chess d2d4 1. d2d4 1. ... d7d5 c2c4 2. c2c4 2. ... e7e6 Also, nchess WILL run /usr/games/chess. So 3.1 runs with chesstool and chess runs with nchess but 3.1 won't run under nchess. I would like to use nchess 3.1 as I have the sources and would like to add some functionality to it. Anybody running 3.1 under nchess on a SPARC, SunOS, openwin etc??? I'm about to shift to Xboard but that is going to take some time as I have just started to work with X. richard currier marine physical lab u.c. san diego rec@mpl.ucsd.edu 619-534-1730 -- richard currier marine physical lab u.c. san diego rec@mpl.ucsd.edu 619-534-1730
