Thanks Roland, however I think both these issues relate to glchess rather than GNU Chess (which is the engine). GLChess bug reports are in the GNOME bugzilla. http://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?query=glchess Did you use the "claim draw" feature of glchess, as draw by three fold repetition needs to be claimed, although most interfaces claim it immediately for the benefit of our sanity I think it is design choice.
