I'm not sure what you mean.
According to "gnuchess -h" there is an option
  -x, --xboard       start in engine mode

On my Fedora-23/KDE laptop, "gnuchess -x" 
produces exactly the same CLI output as "gnuchess".

Nb I have a satisfactory but to me illogical solution -
one starts knights and then specifies gnuchess as chess engine.
This takes 6 seconds more than a logical command starting with gnuchess.
But since it takes 30 minutes for gnuchess to defeat me,
this is not significant.
