On Linux, the de-facto standard here is Shotwell, and it runs circles around anything I've ever seen on any platform. Very, VERY slick, fast and organized. It uses the JFIF data embedded in the photo files themselves to organize the photos. It can detect dupes, import directly from media as you insert it, etc. It supports tags, ratings and all the usual things you'd expect.

HIGHLY recommended, and free!
