I just tested this in Knoppix 4.0.2 CD, and if you start xboard from KMenu, you can only play against yourself, but if you start it from Konsole, you can play against computer.Originally Posted by crazy_monkey108
So start Konsole (one of the icons on the bottom of the screen), write "xboard" and press Enter.
ok thanks that worked.....already knew where konsole was but thanks anyways![]()
hmmm....now when i play it after the first 2 moves or so it says xboard: Error writing to first chess program: Broken pipe
