Yes thats the one CAN bus. Aparently it was included in the Linux kernel 
from 2.6.25 according to Wikipedia. And looking around there are quite a 
few open source projects that have mapped it to serial ports with a 
protocol over the top. I'm going to dig a bit further as I may be trying 
it out pretty soon if it works.
