Re: How to re-install default chess app in N900?

Quick reply...
It's "osso-chess-ui". In Extras, more likely. Just force it to reinstall. Probably:

Code:

apt-get install --reinstall osso-chess-ui

Best wishes.

my mistake, really, I don't know which package is right, however

osso-chess-ui depends on osso-graphics-game-chess (pictures of the pieces) and osso-sounds-game-chess (sounds). osso-chess-ui is open-source (if I remember correctly), and graphics and sounds are not open-licensed - but Addison has provided replacement for most of them.
Best wishes.
