i was also interested in this. I work in a heterogene NT-Cluster with my linux box and all others of my surrounding us LabView. From this year on, there is a Linux-Version, that also supports the National Instuments GPIB-Board. Unfortunately our Framegrabber is not supported, so i shall switch to Windoze for measurements. I have heard of a group in Berlin that do measurements under linux with some GPIB-Board that do not cost 1000$+1000$ for LabView...
