If you go into the 'Wisconsinization' project, there are a number of  
buttons.  The one marked '3dWiki' is the same as the button on the  
startup project, and connects to a router on Mac which also has a  
headless peer on Windows connected to it (to provide the current  
world definitions).  The one marked 'campus' connects to a router and  
headless peer both running in the same Squeak, on Linux.

Each (Mac, Windows, Linux) is using the same images.  Although http:// 
opencroquet.org/WiscWorlds/ only has links for Windows and Mac  
installers, both of these installers have options (off by default)  
which give you the Linux VM.  You need to use one of these and copy  
to Linux for a reason: We don't have a way to test Linux opengl  
graphics and openal sound, and my impression is that both are more  
buggy than I want to deal with. (In fact, openAL doesn't work on the  
Linux box described above, and the software silently catches the  
error and ignores sound so that I can continue using it a router and  
headless peer.) So if you want to work with this on Linux, you should  
really have one of Windows/Mac so you can debug the graphics and  
sound yourself.

And finally, as Josh notes, there is a plugin for capturing video  
from the Web cam on Mac and another on Windows. None for Linux.
