Im thinking about trying NxOgre, but I want to know whats the current status of the linux port. Also, how does NxOgre performs when there is no Nvidia card present? I suppose that, as it uses PyhsX, it should work using the CPU. Is that right?

Yes it uses CPU, so you don't need a Nvidia Card to run it
But if you want to use it on linux, the only problem is that NxOgre run under MSVC, so if you founded how to get MSVC working on your distribution, you can try
You must also solve th portability of the PhysX environment

And our god isn't pleased to port it actually :D

Last time I checked; NxOgre does compile under different compilers. GCC is more fussy than Visual Studio, but there is no reason why it shouldn't run.

I don't give out any solution files other than MSVC because I don't use any other compiler, simple as that really.
