Description Malo Deniélou 2013-01-27 00:57:02 CET 
After installing gnome-games, I ran glchess from the menu (it's called chess there), but nothing appeared. I then tried from the command line. I get the following error message:

> glchess 

(process:26759): Gtk-WARNING **: This process is currently running setuid or setgid.
This is not a supported use of GTK+. You must create a helper
program instead. For further details, see:

Refusing to initialize GTK+.
