I know there's a Domino version available for Linux.  As for the rest of Notes,
I reckon Lotus (IBM) are working towards it, but I'm not sure.  Check out
www.lotus.com as it may have more info...
As I write, I'm checking it out myself, but I've gotta go home (to work on the
Linux box!), so I'll get back to it tomorrow.

Cheers.
