I've grabbed it with the increasingly rising hopes that Steam and the Source engine is coming to Linux as well

I suppose it depends on how compatible the old Goldsource engine is and how much alteration it would need, if it's a relatively quick job I expect they'll do it.

edit - a quick look suggests it used to be able to render in DirectX and OpenGL so it may well appear, as the OpenGL renderer should pretty much just run really.
