Linux Chess GUI w/ Tablebase Support

Sort:

I am currently using SCID for chess stuff but I found out that tablebase support is disabled for Linux due to conflict with debian: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=280741

Does anyone know any GUIs that allow tablebase support or will I have to use wine or something?

Arena is now available for Linux.  The Windows version supports TB's so hopefully the Linux version does also.  Look here ---->> http://www.playwitharena.com/?Download

Edit: The Shredder interface is excellent and a Linux version is available.  It's not free, though.

If anyone is interested my new free Linux GUI has basic tablebase support. Have a look at it, it runs on Ubuntu, Debian and Raspberry Pi. It is called StingRay and you can get it here:

Linux users should try Scid vs. PC  (version 4.19 was updated in March 2018).  It is a fork of Scid with all the latest features including support for table bases.  http://scidvspc.sourceforge.net/

There are some links to directions on getting it installed under Linux.  There are some good videos and tutorials on youtube and chess.com on how to get it configured with PGN databases, etc.  Trust me, it's worth the effort.
