Re: [Bug-gnubg] 3D boards won't display

[Andrew B.]

I tried what you suggested and the 3d board appeared.  So that rules 
out one level of problem.

There is still a lessor problem because the 3D board is very slow. 
And with acceleration turned off, even the GNU moves on the 2d board 
are slightly slower, even though my moves appear to be at normal speed.

So for now, I'll just use the 2d board, and maybe look into tweaking 
my graphic card driver later.
