As far as I know there was any support for epub from adobe for linux: Adobe Digital Editions, which is mandatory (if I got it right) for reading drm'd epub is only available for windows and mac os.
What I was saying was that in the past, adobe promised a digital editions for linux: in their FAQ it was stated it was under development and would come out before the end of the year (I think it was 2007).
Since then not only did it not come out, but adobe removed the announce for the linux version from its FAQ. So it does not look as if they have any intention of developing a linux version.

DRM-free epub would perfectly work with a linux computer though.
