  Two small questions concerning the 
programmes XBOARD and FLIGHTGEAR for
use with SPARC & Solaris 9.

(i) I downloaded XBOARD from unstable and
the package appeared to load properly.
However, on launching xboard and attempting
to play a game the following error message
always occurs on move 2.

illegal move ... (rejected by first chess program)

Has any one else seen this? and do you know
how to play so as to avoid this message? 

(ii) I downloaded flightgear & flightgear_base
and tried to start the programme with fgfs and
on my machine the following messages occur: 

The contents of directory /opt/csw/share/FlightGear 
(referred to below) only contains fgfs-base-cvs041606.tar .

ld.so.1: fgfs: fatal: /opt/csw/lib/libopenal.so: /opt/csw/gcc3/lib/$ISALIST

ld.so.1: fgfs: fatal: /opt/csw/lib/libopenal.so: /opt/csw/gcc3/lib/$ISALIST
-R/opt/csw/lib/$ISALIST: token ISALIST could not be expanded


Base package check failed ... Found version [none] at: /opt/csw/share/FlightGear
Please upgrade to version: 0.9.9.

  
 Any ideas? LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not set.
I assume it is my computer which is at fault?

 Thanks, Jonathan
