The accepted practice as far as open source game development goes is to
keep all the 'code' open, and just that.
A viable business model is to keep the code

Any other thoughts on how one can use the open source for / in the Gaming

I think true multi-OS gaming will only start off when gaming engines are
truly dissociated from the actual game, and gaming engines are open
sourced(perhaps like the ioquake3 project Vikram talked about).

Sorry CS- Source is not available on Linux and Valve has announced
officially that
they have no plans to port steam or its game clients to Linux.
The CS Server runs natively on Linux though.
