XBoard is a graphical chessboard that can serve as a user interface
for GNU Chess, for the Internet Chess Server, or for electronic mail correspondence chess. XBoard can also be used by itself.
Dit staat er ter info over UCI engine Glaurung:
This is a very strong chess engine, finished 4th place at internatonal ChessWar X. It uses the UCI (universal chess interface), for chess engines as communication protocol. This means to play against it, you have to use an UCI capable interface, like knights. Or an xboard adapter like polyglot.
Dus moet je daarvoor ook polyglot installeren, of heb je dat al gedaan?:
Common chess frontends have a winboard/xboard input interface, modern chess engines speak the UCI "universal chess interface" protocol. This protocol adaptor ( polyglot ) makes it possible to use standard chess frontends, like xboard or scid with UCI speaking engines and play chess against them.

Zo te zien is xboard standaard bedoeld om gebruikt te worden met
GNU Chess, allemaal te vinden in het Ubuntu softwarecentrum.
