We have been tossing around the idea of making binary packages for popular GNU/Linux distributions, so I made a Debian package (which should work on Ubuntu as well) of 3.120 final. The packages are on mediafire for now since we're still experimenting with them.
Note that these packages are highly experimental and are quite likely to be broken in some way right now. If you use these packages and have issues, keep the discussion in this thread.
Folder:
http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=6576 ... 8b38efea99
Latest binary package (all architectures):
(If in doubt, only download this one.)
http://www.mediafire.com/file/gfjyzgmxm ... -1_all.deb
Latest source package:
(You only need to download these if you want to rebuild the binary package yourself.)

http://www.mediafire.com/file/0h05eny0t ... -1.diff.gz

If you use these, please let us know how well they worked for you.
@Any Debian Developers who may happen to drop by: I am aware that there is some potentially non-DFSG material in these packages. If these packages work nicely for enough people, we may consider creating DFSG-compliant editions of these packages and trying to get them into Debian and Ubuntu. As it stands now, though, some of the tutorial songs may not necessarily obey the DFSG.

*HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL* Debian/Ubuntu packages for FoFiX
jstump91, a.k.a. john.stumpo, a.k.a. stump jstump.com | stump's blog | FoFiX development | My own code Can't find a Windows build of the Python module you need? Try my mediafire! Don't say "Python can't do [insert task here]." Python can do anything with the right modules - said modules may just not have been written yet.

Re: *HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL* Debian/Ubuntu packages for FoFiX
Will download and test now for you, dearie.
Edit:
Sadly, these are my results:
Pygame is not installed, because last I checked, pygame in Jaunty was borked with multiple oggs, and I never figured out that Python Path stuff. However, the former is a cause for much more concern.
Additional Edit:
Forcing it to ignore the dependencies, because I obviously have them installed: DO NOT ATTEMPT
It started the game, but the fullscreen was borked, so I had to force it with (my) --fullscreen=false switch.
Also, because of my forced dependence ignoring, this happened uppon removal:
One final note:
Ignoring those dependencies makes the game work, I can play as normal and everything. I don't suggest anyone do this however. Build that **** on Jaunty (and what the hell is up with that "Usage: update-python-modules" was it me?) remove bang bang, and we have ourselves a deb, baby.
Oh, and again, one final edit on the final removal in case someone is really daft enough to load this on their system, or in case it helps you Stumpo.
Well, hope I'm not on a trashed system now. Good thing I'm getting Karmic in on a fresh install next week. (ext4, b*tches!)

Re: *HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL* Debian/Ubuntu packages for FoFiX
Well I just installed it with Ubuntu's built-in GUI package installer. Running it gave me an import error for Numeric, so I installed Numeric using Synaptic and then it worked fine, other than the stuttering I always got with the python 2.6 version (including in Windows). Except multi-track songs don't work properly, as Lysdestic predicted.
I'm not sure what version I have - I know it's 9 point something or other, but I don't know how to check (I'm running Netbook Remix, so "About Ubuntu" isn't in the menu).
