Yes, Linux works wonderfully on the 560. You will need XFree86 3.3.1 for
best results. This might not yet be included in the standard RedHat (or
Debian, etc...) distributions but is available from your friendly local
linux software site. There are also a couple of web sites dedicated to
Linux on the 560 but I don't have the URLs handy at the moment.
