Linux chess links

I am disappointed how Linux caters for chess. Still, here are a couple of useful links:

http://www.linuxchess.org/
http://www.shredderchess.com/chess-software/linux.html

NB The Shredder Linux GUI doesn't quite offer the full functionality of the respective Windows version.

Hi Marek
And here some further links for LInux chess engines

The situation isn't too bad for Linux users since under SCID Linux (free !!) you can run
all Linux engines but also all windows-uci-engines provided you have also installed wine.

Kurt
