It took some work, but i now have java version 1.6. The program will run and give me an option to log in, but after that the window is blank and it says "welcome to the free internet chess server."

The latest babas chess (4.0 w2k version) works fine under gutsy install. However there is a sig lag in the UI, i am loosing a couple of seconds per move because of it.. Anyone worked out the most optimised settings for both wine and babas to get the latency down?
The next version of pychess will be able to play on FICS.
Mabu, did you install the xfonts-75dpi package? An alternative is also xfonts-100dpi. Either of them should work.
Yes, both of them according to Synaptic Package Manager and aptitude:
Although it's in italian language I guess you can easily understand the bold part.Code:----.----$ aptitude show xfonts-75dpi xfonts-100dpi Pacchetto: xfonts-75dpi Stato: installato Installato automaticamente: sì Versione: 1:1.0.0-3 Priorità: opzionale Sezione: x11 Responsabile: Ubuntu Core Developers <ubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com> Dimensione pacchetto installato: 4674k Dipende: xfonts-utils (>= 1:1.0.0-6) Consiglia: xfs | xserver Descrizione: Caratteri per X a 75 dpi ...

Any other ideas?
Thanks.
ttf-freefont is probably installed as well? XBoard works fine here, and on this box it is a fairly "vanilla" Ubuntu installation without any major tweaking.
chess at work is a cool site for playing correspondence games. there are a few other urls (redhotpawn.com, redhotchess.com, and one or two others) that also access the same service; same users and games, just different looks.
Everything seems to be related to the fact that I was connecting to the ubuntu box through NX:
-FreeNX server (ubuntu)
-NX Client (Win32).
I thank everybody but I switch to the other thread:
