I've created a VMware Virtual Machine for anyone interested in helping with the Linux port. It is based upon Ubuntu 7.0.4 Desktop, and all the pre-requesite software is installed (as is KDevelop). Performance isn't great, and there's certainly no 3d support, but it should work good enough to get a lot of tasks done without having to install Ubuntu yourself.
You'll need VMware Workstation or the FREE VMware Player to run the image. The VMware player can be downloaded at http://www.vmware.com for free.
The userid/password is: xbmc/xbmc
You can get a copy of the VM from http://www.aceshome.com/xbmcdev.zip
