Not sure why you think it doesn't support Linux. The Kindle doesn't have any software that runs on the computer itself so it supports Linux, Windows, OSX and every other OS that can handle using USB MSC HDs.
Plug it in. Mount it as a USB HD. Copy files over. Unmount it. Unplug it.
Your old Kindle is 3G only and doesn't have the WiFi hardware that the new Kindle 3 has so the only way to get content on there is via the USB connection or to download via 3G from the Kindle store or from a web page which serves the files with the correct MIME type.

You don't sync to a computer with the Kindle. You generally can't brick a Kindle without screwing around with firmware updates or jailbreaking it at which point you're doing it at your own risk. The only thing I would advise not to do is to completely fill the Kindle drive as it doesn't like that and some people have reported that it ends up in a really peculiar buggy state when you do that.
