Yes, that is the problem. Change line 331 to: bitmapdir = $(datadir)/games/xboard Arun Persaud wrote: > thanks for reporting... I can't reproduce this on my linux machine, so > it's harder to debug.

Also, FYI, Stockfish 2.0.1 <http://www.stockfishchess.com/>, which is GPLed, runs fine with Polyglot. I had to run its library through Xboard, though. It library follows the polyglot standard, but nearly always plays Sicilian on e2-e4. Fruit 2.3.1 also works. Rybka232a with microwine-0.9 and IPPOLIT did not work, for some reason, but Stockfish is stronger.
