Pychess 0.10 crashes under Ubuntu with GNUChess

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install pychess on Ubuntu 10.04
2. Set up a new game with GNUChess
3. Make a move

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expect the program to not crash. It seems to crash 90% of the time, either by 
the first or second move.

Does it happen every time?
Yes

What version of the product are you using?
0.10~beta1-3ubuntu1

Did you use an installed version of PyChess or did you run in from a
tarball/svn?

Installed from the Ubuntu repo.

Pychess did not provide me a logfile. :(

I'm afraid you may have run into something similar to Issue 337.
There isn't anything in the logs, and the kernel log seams to be form gstreamer 
crashing. You could check if it helps to disable sounds, but probably gstreamer 
just crashed because the app crashed.

Does the crash not happen against the PyChess engine, or other non GNUChess 
engines?
You tried with PyChess 0.10 final?
Would it be possible for you to try on Ubuntu 10.10?

I turned off sound, and it appears to be working. I think whatever is calling 
gstreamer is likely the culprit.
