gnuchess - xboard has blank window which then hangs
Posted: 8. Aug 2017, 02:00
When I try to use the xboard program, which is included with the gnuchess package, I get a blank window which just hangs. It will not close normally and has to be forced to close.
Now, this is strange especially because this is a slackware package. It was included in the initial install of my slackware system, and it works fine there. I added it to my salix system after the install, and xboard does not work. I have tried running ldd on the xboard executable file, but I do not see any unresolved library calls listed, unless I missed it.
Are there some missing package dependencies?.
Strange.
