Install Gentoo (as part of the install you'd emerge nvidia-glx and run
"opengl-update nvidia" to switch to the nvidia GL libs), and run "emerge
tuxracer"

The gentoo install is slow, but if you want to learn more about linux and
system 
setup, it's great to try it at least once..

It's as easy as apt to keep up to date (aside from the fact that it compiles
things
instead of installing binaries) (emerge rsync; emerge world -u)
