This is the game from official gnome.

Thanks for your report. Unfortunately we need more input to proceed with it.

You have reported it against ``gnuchess'' package but ``gnuchess'' is only an engine which is text-based. The game which is started by using Applications->Games->Chess is called ``glchess'' and is a part of ``gnome-games''. Or maybe you meant ``xboard'' which is graphical interface for ``gnuchess''?

Also I couldn't reproduce this bug with either one so more data is needed - the best way would be to restart apport in report mode by doing ``sudo force_start=1 /etc/init.d/apport restart'' and then run a game. If it crashes apport should generate a report you can attach to this bug. If not then by running a game from terminal may produce some debug informations.

Until this data is attached I mark this bug as an Incomplete.

Yes it is glchess.
I have done what you said --sudo force_start=1 /etc/init.d/apport
But where will the report be saved.

Hi,
I ran this game using terminal.
