Very surprising and cool. Thank you! Works very good

Great - wonderful Xmas present! Thank you so much!

Nice surprise! Thanks to those that made this possible!

At last..!

Thank you Martin and his team for porting this fantastic program to Linux.
Hopefully soon it'll be equal in features as the Windows version!

One glitch found:

When trying to configure Stockfish 8 engine, not all of the parameters are visible in the configuration window that pops up. For example: hash table size is not something shown, so you cannot alter hash table size. The window appears to be too small to show all of the options that Stockfish 8 supports.

Bugs found:

1. Existing engine configuration (ArenaEng.cfg) does not work. All backslashes should be converted into forwardslashes. The program should automatically convert this.

2. The tournament results showed 0 number of games played even after many games already played. It the number of games of played become positive, it will reset to 0 once again after some completed games.

Go to Engine Management and chose UCI. There you can alter the hash table size.

Hit F11, then click the 'UCI' tab and unclick "Common hash table size" ... "Common cpu..."

Then the settings will be adjustable from within SF's engine settings.
