Description Jeremy Bicha 2011-07-26 04:20:04 UTC 
1. Open glchess
2. Click Settings>Preferences.
3. Change Play as to Black and make sure that Opposing Player is set to GNUchess.
4. Switch to the Appearance tab and change Board Orientation to Human Side.
5. The board should have black on the bottom since white is now the computer but that doesn't happen.

Hmm, looks suspicious (chess-scene.vala)

case "human":
   return 0.0; // FIXME
