If you want a good piano on Linux I think you would be better off
looking at Pianoteq, or using LinuxSampler with one of the giga pianos
from the confusingly similarly named sampletekk -
http://www.sampletekk.com/ (they have a 50% discount at present!)

Windows-based VSTi are never going to be the way to go IMHO - likely
to be much more unstable and frustrating!
