Huh? We've been running Fogbugz on a Debian server with a MySQL database for years and years. Fog Creek may encourage Windows now but it still runs on Linux just fine.

They are no longer selling Linux versions. Also only MySQL and mssql are supported. MySQL is not recommended. http://help.fogcreek.com/7389/fogbugz-system-requirements
