The GNAT IDE is called GLIDE, and it has indeed been ported
to Linux. This will be available in the public release of
3.12p sometime in the fairly near future.

If you are talking about AdaGIDE, this is not *the* GNAT IDE,
but rather a very useful IDE for student use written by Martin
Carlisle specifically for NT/Win9x, and as far as I know has
not been ported to Linux.

Then you definitely are talking about AdaGIDE, and you will
have to correspond with Martin Carlisle on this issue. ACT
will be investing its IDE efforts solely on GLIDE. Since
GLIDE uses Ada mode EMACS as its editing base, you should
find this easy to use.
