There isn't a decent newsreader that will run under Linux IMO... I've
tried most of them and not one comes up to my own choice, XanaNews
(which won't run in WINE or Crossover, BTW). If I could use Xana with
Linux I'd be doing 70% of my work on Ubuntu (XFCE desktop) but as it is
my usenet presence for the forseeable future will have to be from a
Windows XP box.
