to learn chess, there's scid and the stockfish engine included in distros such as debian and ubuntu.

There's also the lc0 engine, which is the open source version of the mighty Deep Mind AlphaZero chess engine - linux installation instructions for lc0 are here: https://github.com/LeelaChessZero/lc0/blob/master/README.md

Also shoutout to lichess.org which is by far the best platform to play chess on and is completely free.
