------- Additional Comments From mikos@esc.net.au 2007-10-06 04:08 ------- Problem isolated.
Steps to simulate the same kind of error log: log in with username in the command line type tell %username% :) where %username% is the username you used to log in.
What was happening is that someone would shout a message with an 'emoticon' - this causes the main type of crash in the error logs here.
SOLUTION: To stop BabasChess from crashing, in the manner initially stated, go to file--preferences, click console tab, and uncheck 'use emoticons'.
Actually, it says to do this on http://www.babaschess.net/support.asp?#Q_linux I should have read this before sending so many additional comments.
