You can with Ardour 2.0:

http://ardour.org/manual/control_surfaces/tranzport

I love this device, and I have been working on improving that driver somewhat. Patches to current svn are at: http://tracker.ardour.org/view.php?id=1343

There seem to currently be some issues on multiprocessor machines with this version of the driver.

Also I note that the setup for more modern versions of udev ( e.g. FC6) is out of date, you need a line like this in your /etc/udev rules:

# Frontier Designs Tranzport

SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device", ACTION=="add", SYSFS{idVendor}=="165b", SYSFS{idProduct}=="8101", GROUP="audio", MODE=="0666"

I just got one yesterday, as a matter of fact, for use with Ardour...
