I've found that I get better performance and unlike vega more stability with linux. Used NWN with the following distro's with no problems:

SUSE 9.1
Debian Woody and Sarge (There is a problem with Etch,which isnt listed as stable yet, in that the nvidia drivers arent there for it)
Xandros 3 OC

Running it under Ubuntu Linux 6.06 (Dapper Drake) here. Much more stable than under Windows. The game is more fluid and less jittery for me. Running it with an Nvidia GeForce 6800 based card.

I'm running NWN on Ubuntu 6.10(Edgy), with an Ati Radeon 9600.
I used to have some performance issues, due to a bug in the ATI drivers, but I fixed it with a cheap "hack". Now it's running running smoothly and stable :D
