is there a good chess program for Gnome?

[ice60]

hi, i tried a SuSE livecd the other day (it's the first KDE distro i liked), on the cd it had a chess program which i forget the name now, but it was really good. i was just wondering if there's anything as good for Ubuntu? if there's a few good ones do you know which is the lightest? - resource and size wise. thanks. :)

just open up synaptic, and search for "chess". i am sure quite a few matches will come up. :)

It was quite likely to be xboard with the gnuchess engine, but as the poster above says there are a number of options you can choose.

:cool:

try csboard. it uses the mono framework. unlike xboard, you can set the levels. it also has suggested opening moves derived from the book in the first 1-10 moves of standard bookwork
