I am trying to install the xchess that came with version 3
of gnuchess. it compiles fine, and executes fine, but when
the window pops up on my screen, it is almost the entire
screen in height, but maybe 4 to 8 pixels wide. i can resize
it from the window manager "resize window" option, but when
i do that, the outline of the window is flipped up along the
top edge. (i.e. the top edge of the "real" window is shown as
the bottom edge of the outline, and the rest of the outline goes
off the top of the screen.)

has anyone run into the same problem?

thanks,

mike (mbarnett@cs.utexas.edu)
