This post should go in Linux games rather than software forum.
Now, to actually answer your question, there is currently a port being made of AvP for linux and it is available here: http://www.icculus.org/avp/
the problem is that the port is fairly undone (I havn't tried it myself though, so i'm no expert) Actually scratch that comment as It seems that single player was "almost finished" in January, so must be further along now.
You can also try wine. unfortunitly it seems http://appdb.codeweavers.com is down right now.
edit: AvP is not listed in the appdb so i suggest you try the native port at icculus.

I messed around with this earlyer this year, but ran into problems...the CVS code is geared for the Gold Edition of AvP and I have the original. I think it was a line you could change so it doesn't do the check for the Gold Edition and the original would work...
I think I might give this another try, if it fails again I can always pick up the Gold Edition for $10 any around here :)

Well, this CVS does work with the Regular version, but the install is very slim (where is it, type of slim ;))
When compliling i first got "nasm not found"...no problem, I installed the nasm packages and tried again...better, but now it errors at
openal.c:6:19: AL/al.h: No such file or directory
I find that OpenAL was a project that Loki was working on for Audio, but nothing on why I get this error, probally because I don't have the "file or directory" ;) So of course this causes a few dozen errors. And of course there are no Red Hat packages for this so off to the source I go! (http://www.openal.org/downloads/)
No problem, fixed those errors. So on with the make and it bombs out when it starts building the AvP executable...start of the compile...
/home/mahdi/gamefiles/avp/avp/cconvars.cpp:122: undefined reference to `__gxx_personality_v0'
avp/cdtrackselection.o: In function `EmptyCDTrackList':
/home/mahdi/gamefiles/avp/avp/cdtrackselection.cpp:38: undefined reference to `operator delete[](void*)'
avp/cdtrackselection.o: In function `EmptyCDTrackList':
/home/mahdi/gamefiles/avp/win95/list_tem.hpp:411: undefined reference to `operator delete[](void*)'
and it goes on from there...so from here, does someone that has successfully done this have any ideas on this?
