Hello,
[Please, read carefully, stockfish.nnue is not stockfish!!].
I found this information on github about how to install the new stockfishNNUE chess engine, I try to do it in scid_vs_pc - I think it is the most suitable GUI:
I’ve done it several times but I don’t know what mistake I’m making …
Perhaps someone can clarify this information much better. Thank you.
Is this the same as the stockfish engine from the AUR:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/stockfish/ ?
If so, to install it, simply run:
yay -S stockfish
There is also a stockfish-git
package:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/stockfish-git/
yay -S stockfish-git
If you’re unsure, I’d recommend the former package, as it seems to be more popular, and it’s regularly maintained. If you require the latest version compiled from the source on github, then the second package (the git one) might be better for you.

It seems that I did not explain myself well (I use google translator).
Installing the program is not the only problem, the main issue is how to run it in the GUI (scid_vs_pc). It is not clear enough for me what steps I should follow and which option should be opened in scid in order to get the engine inside the right option and run …
I forget to say that this stockfishnnue (in git) has different characteristics than the previous stockfish we know - my intention is to put both engines to play and see the superpower of this new … “hybrid” ?.
It is ‘another thing’, it is called here : SFNNUE

scid does not work well for dark themes

Just fill in the details, stockfish works.
Name: stockfish
command /usr/bin/stockfish
You get the idea.

git clone https://github.com/nodchip/Stockfish.git
cd Stockfish
cd src
make build ARCH=x86-64
sudo make install
Then add the engine as above. The configuration - no idea.

@Keos there appears to be a problem with me seeing that you have posted. Apologies, have raised and issue in the forum category.

I don’t think I understand what you are saying, anyway, there is no problem with me, there is no need to apologize …
I just want to install this weird thing, this beast …!
It seems to me that we also have to install something else:
https://www.comp.nus.edu.sg/~sergio-v/nnue/
and then add it … to the directory in scid ?.
I think everything is too complicated for me, I’ll just try a few more …
EDIT:
This is the place from where i’m trying to get information in order to install it but i don’t understand well …
Stockfish NNUE is a massive revolution in traditional chess engine technology, with a combition of traditional search engine on Neural Network evaluation, resulting in instant improvement of +100 elo to Stockfish. Stockfish NNUE has two components....

Copy and paste this into a terminal, the whole lot in one go, not line by line:
mkdir tmp1
cd tmp1
git clone https://github.com/nodchip/Stockfish.git
cd Stockfish
cd src
make build ARCH=x86-64
sudo make install
ls -lah /usr/local/bin/stockfish
You did not compile it last time - you missed make build ARCH=x86-64
If this does not create /usr/local/bin/stockfish
copy and past the output here.

So it is now installed. Go into scid, open engines and add it with that path (/usr/local/bin), scid does not work well for me as it doesn’t like my dark theme.

Just is case to let you know this: stockfishNNUE need what it is called the ‘neural net’ (network).
https://tests.stockfishchess.org/nns
I will try to install this … in scid …
EDIT: If we do not do it then we are just working with just a clon os stockfish.

OK, so we have just compiled stockfish I assumed it would be correct as it came from the git repo you referenced.
I haven’t played chess in 20-30 years, so I am afraid I will have to gracefully withdraw, but good luck!!
But it is compiled with nnue
