This is the link for to get the torrent:

You really haven't looked very far then have you. http://www.tuxgames.com/ Has the widest Native Linux Game selection I've seen. I've been playing X2: The threat for a while now and its an excellent port to OpenGL considering it was developed using Direct X and Shader 1.x.

They have UT2003 for Linux! w00t! Thanks for that link. I had visited it a while ago, but I forgot all about it.

There is more Windows to/and Linux games... just can't think of them... or... they are not worth mentioning.
