I am not sure it is a Linux thing. Even in windows, my FPS
fluctuates quite a bit. Locally, it depends on what is in your
frame of view (complexity of surroundings), and online, you
need to add in the quality of your connection to the server
as an added variable.

Just my 0.02 worth... I may be totally wrong...
