This >version can be used with xboard. 1) We are not ChessBase. ChessBase doesn't offer a Linux version of *anything*. 2) The engine supports the standard XBoard and UCI protocols, and can be used under (almost) any interface. This means that it not only works under xboard, but also under SCID, Knights, and whatever other interfaces are available or Linux. We do not 'lock' you in a single interface. -- GCP
