I was looking for a free game with a Linux client, and I found Tremulous
It's open source (that's good), and it pwns. A multiplayer team deathmatch styled game based on the Q3 engine, with humans on one side and aliens on the other. It's pretty basic but the humans have upgradable weaponry and suchlike, whereas the aliens evolve into rather larger aliens. Although it's quite fun to play the tiny little aliens anyway even when you have the evolution points to become more powerful, because you have a lot of stealth options available when you're tiny and you can walk on the ceiling.
On bigger servers it feels kind of like a fast paced deathmatch but on smaller ones it can get that kind of CS stealth feeling, with everyone creeping around a lot.
There's a very small bit of base building too, but I don't really understand that.
It's good, and it's free so try it.

Something like that.

Sorry, I should have said that there is a Windows client too.

I've never used Linux.
All I know is that it has a penguin instead of a Window?
Or something.
Swish.
