Sounds like a great idea.  Also, there is a project called GGI which 
incorporates graphics directly into the linux kernel...  It might be easier
to develop a game sdk for linux using GGI for the interface.  However I do
believe that GGI was only designed to work at the console, and not under X.

Anyways the information you provide on your web page sounds like it would
be a great project...
