I have not tried to reproduce it but here are the steps that I performed and then the GNU Chess hang forever and did not move:

[Event "Human versus GNU Chess"]

[Date "2009.06.16"]
[Round "?"]
[White "White"]
[Black "GNU Chess"]
[Result "*"]
[BlackAI "GNU Chess"]
[BlackLevel "hard"]

Hi,
 I have attached one image file , which shows the moves which i performed (white), Now its computer's turn to make a move where It never makes a move(black), observed it for more than 15 min. It doesn't make any move. Hope it helps in reproducing the bug.

@rado, please could you check if this issue is still affecting you under latest release included in Ubuntu Lucid? Thanks!

This is also a problem that I am having computer will not make move after I do. hoveyplry

I guess the problem might be that the chess is taking too long time to make its move, probably because timing is set to infinite.
