Well - you can run fmb's... Fmx's are usually smaller and load faster, but there never was a restriction in not compiling into fmx. Not in previous versions. Why don't you just test; if it fails, you'll need one 10gAS compiler on Linux - not the whole shabam. And the applet will be the correct one; Java was intended to "write once, run on many platforms".
