If anyone is thinking about using Linux and is intimidated by not being able to play poker I'd like to report that pokerstars is 99% under WINE. Ubuntu is an insanely easy to live with linux distribution with all sorts of bells-n-whistles.

Basically:

1) Get Ubuntu installed, make networking do it's thing.
2) Install WINE via Synaptics package manager (nice and point-clicky)
3) Run the pokerstars installer EXE
3a) (edit) Hack your config file a little so you can use F5 to complete the resize.
4) PWN UR OPPONENTZ!!!!1!

The only thing I can find that doesn't work is that tournament tables won't resize. Cash games resize fine. I haven't played a tournament in a few updates so that MIGHT be fixed but I'm not holding my breath.

Anyone running pokertracker/pokerace under Linux? I haven't been using it lately because I hardly ever play online now. How about that new poker evolution?
