Having just brought up gnuchess 3.1 on a SPARC under Openwin,I
have just discovered that it will not run with either chesstool
or nchess. I says "exec of gnuchess failed". I seem to remember
this talked about some time ago but don't remember the fix.
Any info on running 3.1 under the Nchess window system?

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.
