Not sure it's a Microsoft only thing, but you don't
need to on ext2/3 because they are more intelligent
file systems, it organises your data in the least
fragmented way possible at every opportunity. I could
get my uni notes on filesystems out but I'm tired and
doing a final mail check before going to bed.

You can defrag an ext2/3 volume if you really want to
(I forget the command), but there is generally no need
at all.
