I've played a lot with both Windows (used XP) and Linux (mainly Ubuntu), so I doubt it's a problem with the master server (or the game, for that matter), but rather a problem with the config of your network/hardware/sotware.

Main questions are:
- which version of OA do you use? 0.8.8?
- which OSes are you specifically using? Windows XP? Ubuntu Linux?
- hardware? what are you using to connect to internet? are the net configs right?

You may have a firewall problem, maybe.

You may also take a look here: (DO NOT LINK) h t t p s : / / openarena . wikia . com/wiki/Manual/Multiplayer

Another thing: did you download the game from official OA site, or did you use some Linux repository? Sometimes, Linux repositories have slightly different versions...
