Hello,

Best wishes,
Norbert

The site says "stockfish chess engine in x86-64"
I don't get it because as far as I know Stockfish is already 64bit

It means assembly language, not C++. It "talks" directly with the computer and does not require interpreting.

This seems interesting. How to get the Linux binary ? I do not see makefile.

There are 3 pre-compiled Linux binaries in Linux folder.
If you prefer to compile it yourself go to asmFish directory and open a terminal and execute this command for a popcnt version
./fasm asmFish_popcnt.asm -m 262144 asmFish_popcnt
If you want BMI2 version ./fasm asmFish_bmi2.asm -m 262144 asmFish_bmi2
For an old 64 bits computer ./fasm asmFish_base.asm -m 262144 asmFish_base

Where/to whom can I report a crash of ASMFish? I have all the details but I don't want to sign up to GitHub.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86-64

x86-64 (also known as x64, x86_64 and AMD64) is the 64-bit version of the x86 instruction set.

Hello Marek, you can leave a message for Mohammed in one of the threads about asmFish in Fishcooking: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searc ... ooking/ASM

There is one about the Linux version, and I think they also reported some problems with it, so maybe the problem is known already.

You probably do need a Gmail account, because it is a Google mailing list. But maybe any email addres will work, I see other members who have signed up with non Gmail addresses. Mark Lefler is a member, and he reported some bugs in Stockfish, but it was thought he was not the real Mark Lefler. They thought his story very ingenious. Not sure if it was a troll and if not, how Mark took being taken for a troll. Nobody bothered to ask the 'real' Mark Lefler if it was him...

The latest version (on Windows Server) crashes when I run the popcount version, even though I have a modern chip. The vanilla version runs, but it won't process and EPD row under Arena. I made several bug reports but nothing happens so I think I will leave it alone for a month or so and see if he straightens it out

[Marek Soszynski]

The crashes were with the Windows base/vanilla version; the Linux version runs okay.

In light of what Dann says, I will leave the matter for now.
