Chess in 3D mode

[DoktorSeven]

For some reason the Python gtkglext package isn't available for Ubuntu through the package manager... go download and install python-gtkglext1_1.1.0-2feisty_i386.deb from here to fix (you'll also need the aforementioned python-opengl package, which IS available through the package manager...).

Worked for me.

But the game is? If so the people who (want to) play this game should bug report it.

I used this how-to to get it working for me:

Thanks a lot, cstudent. This is the only thing that worked for me.

[olejorgen]

eh... that was NOT worth it.. looked like **** (no offense).
Anyone know how to rotate?

[DoktorSeven]

No rotation or anything seems to be possible, just a bad perspective of the chessboard.

No 3d or anything, but I still like eboard as my GUI chess game of choice.

Thanks cstudent. That worked, though, as olejorgen said, it really isn't worth it. Chintzy 3D that looks awful. The 2D interface is much better looking.

I installed ubuntu feisty fawn from LiveCD. To enable 3D mode in chess I installed additional packages:

1. python-opengl_2.0.1.09.dfsg.1-0.3_i386.deb http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/feis.../python-opengl

2. libgtkglext1_1.0.6-2.1ubuntu1_i386.deb http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/feis...s/libgtkglext1

3. python-gtkglext1_1.1.0-2feisty_i386.deb http://sourceforge.net/project/showf...kage_id=179437
