Lin-ix is how you're supposed to say it.

Lin-ix sounds weird in an English accent though.

I always used to say line-ux.
Now, not sure why, but I say lin-ux.

On a related note:
do you say SQL like "sequel" or do you spell it out like "S-Q-L"?
and
do you say URL like "earl" or do you say "U-R-L"?
I know people who do it both ways...
