A linux game company would have much better chances today. There are just more linux users, and they are probably MORE willing to pay for a quality game than mac or windows users, since piracy is not so all-pervasive as it is on windows/mac.
In addition, SDL was developed at Loki. It's a superb porting tool, and a linux game company starting tomorrow would be crazy not to pick it up, saving significant development costs.
Oh, and to you who say you are ex-Loki employees: Thanks for SDL!
(and the cool games, but I didn't get to buy any of them)
