Have you tried gmorgan ? works with Ubuntu and likely other Linux distros.
It is hosted on sourceforge, where you will find links to video demos.

Impro-visor is an excellent java program that runs on almost any 
platform and has
a large library of songs called the imaginary book.

The next release of gmorgan, (write me if you like to try the 
pre-release version),
includes a small flex program which translates impro-visor tunes to 
gmorgan's
format. It doesn't do an exact translation because the styles are not 
the same.
...but it's pretty close.
