I have no idea.

This is the start up entry to launch it but I don't know the command line to find out what's wrong on your end.

# Chess config file

[Startup Entry]
Name=osso_chess
Version=1.4.34
Title=Chess
TitleId=game_ap_chess_name
GettextPackage=osso-games
PluginPath=/usr/lib/osso-chess-ui/chess_plugin.so
Image=/usr/share/pixmaps/osso-games-startup-chess.png
ServiceName=com.nokia.osso_chess
PathName=/com/nokia/osso_chess

I found mine in

/usr/share/osso-chess-ui/osso_chess.conf

I'm using Maemo 4 by the way.

I think other people with a N900 got this to work as well without any problems.

All I did was change the graphic and sound files.

I'm not smart enough to do anything more than this.
