Nope.

There's http://brlcad.org/, which looks like much-is-possible,

I'm one of those Linux-only persons. Is there a Sketchup for Linux or is it 
just Mac and Windows as the Sketchup-page says?

The newest wine-1.0 can run the windows version of sketchup-6 on nvidia video 
cards using the nvidia binary blob drivers.  I have not been able to make it 
work on my older ATI 9200SE card, the screens workspace isn't drawn, and 
generally contains random data stolen from other screens.  Apparently it 
needs some sort of 3d support that is not in the current radeon driver for 
RV280 chipsets.

I ordered an X1650 Pro, but it arrived defective yesterday, my box won't even 
post when its plugged in. :(

The article is dated, there have been 2 releases since.  Unforch for me, the 
last release is for IA64 linux only, not x86-32.  I already have 7.10, so 
downloaded the srcs to see if it will build on x86-32.

Big pre-alpha notices on download page.

There is some code for Super Collider for motor engine sound
synthesis. It's pretty bad, but it's a start. It's part of the default
example code.

I also stumbled over some motor engine sound synthesis in the pure
data community. It was worse, but still a start. I don't have the URL
to his site, but if you search the pure data mailing list for "game
sounds", I think you'll find it. If not, reply and I'll dig it up.

Sadly no native Linux version yet, but many people do run it in Wine is my
understanding.
