As long as you set your Default Gateway to be the IP of the Windows ICS host, and use DHCP on your *nix box - Windows will be happy and ICS will work.
EDIT: BTW I am a *very* happy VMWare Workstation customer and I would recommend it to anybody with enough £££'s to throw at it. I use it to run Solaris, a myriad of BSD's and Linux's on my sole remaining Windoze box.
EDIT-2: I would avoid Linspire/Lindows - I've never used it but I gather that you operate as an administrative user (i.e. root) all the time? Bad news..... If I were you, I'd go with (for a newbie) Mandrake, or if you want the full works, SuSE Linux.
Cheers

EBOARD(6) Games Manual EBOARD(6)
NAME
eboard - a graphical chess board
SYNOPSIS
eboard [-log] [-debug] [-dgtport device ]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page briefly describes the eboard command.
eboard is a graphical chess board. It acts as an interface to chess engines (like GNU Chess, Sjeng and Crafty) and Internet Chess Servers
(ICS) like FICS (http://www.freechess.org), and works as a browser for chess games saved as PGN (Portable Game Notation) files. eboard
itself is not a chess engine: it won't play games, it will just act as a graphical interface between programs that play games like GNU
chess (or ICS servers) and the end-user.
To move pieces click on the source square and then click to destination square. Optionally, you may drag the piece from the source to the
destination square (you won't see the piece being dragged). To drop pieces on crazyhouse and bughouse variants (ICS-only) right-click the
destination square and select the piece to drop from the popup menu.
For help with ICS commands consult the server (most of them have online help and help channels).
For help setting up associated programs (chess engines, timestamping, etc.) see the documentation in /usr/share/doc/eboard or visit the
eboard web site at http://eboard.sourceforge.net. If the documentation is not installed in your system, you can find it in the source dis-
tribution, available from the web site.
OPTIONS
-log Log network communications to "~/LOG.eboard". Communications held in password mode are not logged.
-debug Print miscellaneous debug info to "~/DEBUG.eboard".
-dgtport device
Use the DGT board connected to the given device.
