I have to study VHDL from 0 and i'd like to have an option that runs under a linux kernel instead of NT/Windows: any tips?
I can also really appreciate some good links to good VHDL resources for a beginner, thanks.

Both Xilinx ISE and Altera Quartus II IDEs run under Linux. Free downloads are available:

There is also Symphony EDA:

which might be better if you don't need synthesis. It's a nice piece of software. The free version might be adequate.
