This (http://www.3ddownloads.com/linuxgames) website is the best. They have it all, from pre-compiled Duke Nukem 3D source builds to Quake III Arena for Linux (still need all the official packs though, sorry warez dudes  (http://tongue.gif) ).

You are mistaken, the original postal was based on the UT engine, but Postal 2 is based on the unreal warfare engine, the same engine behind ut2k3.  Here is a link.
