Yes, the Garnet VM is a virtual machine running on top of Linux. Access essentially broke it out of their ALP smartphone OS offering and ported it to Maemo. This lets them beta test the Garnet VM while they shop ALP to smartphone manufacturers, and demonstrate the modularity of their offering. while they develop ALP targeted at a Linux kernel they got when they acquired China Mobile, it's Linux version agnostic, and I saw a report that an Access engineer got it running on a different Linux kernel in a day.
