With the recent demise of Loki, I've gotten an interest in seeing what it takes to port games to Linux from Windows. Nothing fancy like rewriting entire sections of D3D code, but something like re-doing interfaces to the windowing system, input, audio, etc.

The only problem is I'm having a hard time finding anything to start porting. It seems to be nearly impossible to find any open source games for Windows. Does anyone know of a place to find software that would be good to try porting? Just to get an idea what the guy sat Loki really had going on in their shops.
