Not exactly linux but its open source... This company on kickstarter are making an arduino satellite.
It's already hit its funding target, my only question is how they intend to get the thing in to LEO. Test flights on balloons are scheduled for September/October but that only takes you to 100,000 ft. The other 300,000 might prove tricky.

Anyway, it's a nice idea. I'd be interested in getting one of the sods to the moon or proper space. How hard can it be?
Back on topic proper, I'm currently playing with Linux Mint in a VM... I like the clean-ness of it compared to Ubuntu.
