Gsync currently works on Linux, why would enabling adaptive sync on Linux not work? As far as I can tell right now AMD freesync suffers from all the draw backs that gsync on Linux does.
My next GPU will be AMD, but it would be nice if I could buy freesync monitors and use them until I am ready to make the switch.

I don't know how exactly the integration will work. I'm just saying with Nvidia it's always more risky, since good integration isn't their primary goal, if history is teaching us anything.

From my tests, I think it's definitely worth it for games with framerates that tend to fluctuate. If it ever causes trouble on the desktop or in a particular game, it's easy to disable in the monitor's settings.
I bought my monitor because it was an ultrawide (21:9) on sale. It just happened to have FreeSync support, so I never actually intended to use it back then.

I don't know about under Linux, and I don't know about with an Nvidia GPU (16:10 is more important to me than VRR), but it is theoretically possible.
