I once ported Lasertank to DOS ( I never fully finished it), and I

palette so I only had to load the game palette once. I assume that a
linux program will be much closer to a dos program than to a windows
program. I have also heard of a game/graphics library in linux, I
forget what it is called but I know it does all the low level game
stuff. You should figure out this aspect of the game first.
By the way I have the wav files of all the sound effects, I forget
if the source kit included them or not.
