Linux you should be alright. Of course, no one knows what FSX will have in store.

A MICROSOFT game on LINUX........survey says NO! Sure you can use wrappers etc, but your not going to get half the frame rate that someone on a Vista system will. If FSX is as vista relyant as they claim then your SOL.

If you can setup WINE and have good linux graphics drivers you should be able to have a good fsx experiance with only slightly lower FPS than windows.  If you want a flight simulator thats free and can be compiled for a linux system checkout:
