Hi, well i found a bug in my engine. I declare the boolean variable "stop_search" in search.c. I made the error that i call this variable as "extern int stop_search" from other files. Interesting: - No compiler found this error (gcc, icc, vc 6.0 (also solaris)) - On Windows and Linux(!) the engine runs without any problems. Expect Solaris 8-10 (Sparc) family created a "segmentation fault" at first access. How is this possible ? Why other plattforms and compiler ignored this problem ? I only do a read access of this extern variable. see here: http://www.homer-chess.com/images/sol9.jpg Best, Daniel
