Jonathan Blow, the developer of Braid, has had a thread on his blog (made from last year, when he gave up trying to port Braid on linux, till July of this year) about the (sorry?) state of developer tools on Linux.

An interesting read - given that his primary editor was emacs and he has been using *nixes for 20 years.

Long story short - sorry state of sound on Linux, sorry state of debugging tools on linux, OpenAL+SDL dont cut it.
