Im a little fuzzy on what you mean by 'using' Linux with the new controllers.

MicroChip has a complete integrated SW development tool set, which you would install and run on a PC (like you did with the basic stamp editor)

I dont know if the Microchip development SW will run on a Linux system, if thats what you mean

I cant think of any reason why you would want to have Linux run on the robot controller itself (if that is what you are talking about) - since the RC doesnt have a disk drive or network, or video... there really is no need to have an operating system running on the PIC chip inside the robot.
