You should see if you can convert that MS Source"safe" junk to CVS or
Subversion.  I got the company I work for to switch a lot of development
to CVS.  CVS will work in just about any IDE, where MS Visual Sourcesafe
will not.

You could also try wine.  Here is a little HOW-TO on running vss under
Wine.

This setup seems a little comlicated, I would try to install it under
Wine standalone.
