Any Chance ...
That this will be ported to Linux any time at all?
I don't mean 'it works in Linux', because it actually doesn't work in some Distros and not so well in others.
Just curious.

Thanks for your question. I do understand the benefits of providing a more complete solution for Linux-based mining but there are unfortunately no plans for the near future to provide this.
Definitely works better with Windows. It's easy to understand as AM is probably developed in .net, probably C#. I gave up on linux, too much trouble.
'Linux' ...
Totally agree there! In fact, I wanted to try AM with linux distro. I actually runs my rigs on uBuntu and Linux Mint distros and not to mention that all my servers (nodes) are running uBuntu live Server and good old CentOS. I use my own (ps)scripts to manage my farm rigs but I wanter to give a try to AM.
I looking to overclock natively in a linux distro to use the Trex API or any other miner that have his own API. Do you @hrysophylax use only Linux distros to run your rigs or you use AM? May you could help me?

Probably using Ubuntu - and you call it 'Linux' ... No - Linux is the OS and Ubuntu, Fedora, CentOS and others are Distributions and builds of 'Linux'.
Linux itself is BY FAR easier and more flexible than Windows will EVER be. Take it from a Miner here that has been doing this for almost 12Years now, and has one of the Largest Mining Farms in the Southern Hemisphere.
Windows couldn't do 1/10th of what 'Linux' does in a heartbeat.
But thanks for your input anyway. C# is a copy and clutter of C++ in many ways that Miscrosoft Fuddles together. Still to this day, it requires MORE resources than C/C++ AND the remnants of a slow cumbersome operating System Called Windows (or at least the Base of Windows).
A Native Fedora/CentOS or Ubuntu/Debian Linux Port would show you how magnificently it proves My point in performance and Flexibility.
Unfortunately - this Wonderful package has no plans to go there, so We will continue using the Package We have, and the Management systems We have currently - which works VERY Well by the way anyway. It would have been nice if Awesome Miner was one of those Packages.
