Yes, they reside in ~/.vst, that seems to be the default place renoise 
looks even if $VST_PATH is empty (which mine was).

Ok I tried putting the path of the plugin into VST_PATH:

atte at vestbjerg:~$ locate linuxsampler | grep so$
/usr/lib/linuxsampler/liblinuxsampler.so
/usr/lib/lv2/linuxsampler.lv2/linuxsampler.so

atte at vestbjerg:~/.vst$ export VST_PATH=/usr/lib/linuxsampler/

atte at vestbjerg:~/.vst$ echo $VST_PATH
/usr/lib/linuxsampler/

Still nothing linuxsampler related in renoise.

That was checked alreade. I also tried both symlinking and copying 
/usr/lib/linuxsampler/liblinuxsampler.so into ~/.vst but that didn't 
work either...

What to do?

NB: Found this (1 year old) that suggests it at least wasn't possible at 
that time:
