The
Linpus Linux website seems to be down now so I can't point to anything there for the moment.

Looks like the answer is yes.
You will want an RPM install file. Note the Wikipedia article says Linpus is based on Fedora.

From the Wikipedia article, also:
The Media Center version offers an "Upgrade pack" to legally use DVD, MP3, WMV and other non-free codecs.
This can probably also done other ways with a little more work.
Not sure if it is useful to post this also:

Maybe that helps a little?
