Just in case, so that you don't lose time looking for it,

Fruit is not yet available for linux because it is a UCI-only engine.
The only working UCI interface I know of is Jose, which does not handle
engine-vs.-engine matches.

I am working on a UCI-xboard adapter which I hope to release next week.  Porting
this adapter to Windows is going to be a major headache though ...
