Please advise what/where I may test Spice under linux.

== TIA.

Do you mean SPICE the circuit simulator?

Do you _really_ mean something that's GPL, or do you mean something that 
you can get for free-as-in-beer?

If you just want to simulate circuits on a Linux box, try LTSpice from 
Linear Technology, running under Wine.  It's a vastly improved SPICE 
engine, you can get an executable for free, and AFAIK it works under Wine 
(I dunno -- I don't use it on any of my Linux boxes).

Perhaps http://www.geda.seul.org/tools/ngspice/ ?

gEDA has two other simulators too - verilog and gnucap.

It's unlikely to be as mature as the packages suggested by the other
(wiser) posters, but i've found Gnucap :

http://www.gnu.org/software/gnucap/

to be very usable and sufficient for my relatively modest
(analog/filter) needs.

I second ngspice - I just used it a few days ago and it
worked fairly well, at least for a few simple mosfet
simulations.

I thought the old Fortran SPICE code was still available.

Though if you want to use more modern devices that may
not work.
