Yes, I have repeated the below info from http://www.rybkachess.com/index.php?aus ... stallation.

In summary, you can use microwine to run rybka in linux. I remember using the shredder linux GUI. You might need to create a shell script (e.g. .sh) with the instruction to use microwine to start Rybka 64.

Linux
32-bit version of Rybka can be used under Linux with the Windows emulator Wine.
64-bit version of Rybka can be used under Linux using the experimental tool by Steinar H. Gunderson (please read the Readme before using it!):

Since microwine 0.5 an experimental port for Mac OS X is also included.
