I would definitely love a linux port.

I use Ubuntu as the main system for everything, games, when supported natively, just as anything else.

Wine does run TTG games, but not as well and as hassle-free as windows. In fact this is the ONLY reason I still tolerate to have also a windows installation on my PC, and I would love to finally get rid of that hopeless junk.

I spare you the technical details, but the various linux distros are really a non-issue. In fact supporting various linux distros is BY FAR less work than supporting, say, both WinXP and Vista.

Furthermore, Wine is not only a binary launcher, it can ease the porting itself.
