I asked on KGS, and apparently KGS doesn't play nicely with the Linux OpenJRE. So had I had to download the Oracle JRE and install that. Fun, fun, fun. (I've ended up with an archive file where there should be the folder usr/local/java, and there doesn't seem to be any way to delete it.) After a good hour of work, I finally got things to load properly and was able to play a free game against MFoG without Cgoban crashing.

Now if I just knew how to make a script that runs the appropriate terminal command to open cgoban.jar the way a Windows shortcut works.... :)

Hi Fedya,

You should be able to obtain this result as follows:
1. Create a text file named KGS.sh (or whatever you want)
2. On the first line, write #!/bin/sh
3. Enter the list of commands to be executed, one per line. (in your case it should be only one)
4. In a terminal, enter the command "chmod +x KGS.sh" to make the file executable.

Normally, double-clicking on the file should execute it or open a menu with an option to execute it.
