Hello,

i have emerged knights and gnuchess and have configured everything regarding the knights faq
(http://knights.sourceforge.net/faq.php#faq2)
the problem is that i don't see a board. So i tried to set my KDEDIR to "/usr/kde/3.4"
Quote:

sammy@uranos ~ $ l /usr/kde/3.4/
total 44K
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Nov 13 19:49 bin
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4.0K Sep 25 22:37 etc
drwxr-xr-x 22 root root 20K Nov 13 19:48 include
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 12K Nov 13 19:49 lib
drwxr-xr-x 13 root root 4.0K Sep 25 22:37 share
sammy@uranos ~ $ echo $KDEDIR
/usr/kde/3.4

i have tried the -d switch too.
