When I tried the 3d boards the first time, I had the same problem. In
the end it was just caused by the fact that the animation of gnubg's
move was so painfully slow that it seemed to be frozen. The animation of
moving one checker across the board took minutes. (In my case the cause
of the problem was that the X-server on my linux box was not correctly
configured for 3D H/W accelaration.) What does "Settings -> Appearance
-> 3d-Options -> Test Performance" say?
