Problem with xboard

[Dieterich Erwin]

I took the xboard shell-archives from comp.sources.x, made files
out of the archives, compiled - everything worked fine. BUT:
Now I can't see the white figures on the board, only the black
ones. Well, I can play, but it is sort of a blindfold game then
with only the black ones visible. The Computer is able to notice
my moves though. 

Is there someone out there who can help me ???

Thanks a lot

  Erwin
