No, there isn't a native tool for Linux that reads vendor formats. 
Unfortunately, vendor formats are proprietary and requires the vendor 
drivers to access those files and convert them. All of those drivers are 
Windows only, as the vendors have decided that is their platform of choice. 
Thermo will eventually release a Linux compatible driver set for Mono, 
maybe you can even get your hands on the development version - but it will 
only read the file. Converting it to another format will require additional 
coding or interfacing with ProteoWizard.

One possible solution would be to create a Windows virtual machine for 
converting vendor formats. It can be fired up inside Linux, then convert 
the vendor files to mzML using msconvert from ProteoWizard, copy the mzML 
files back to your Linux filesystem, and wind down the VM.

Cheers,
Mike
