I guess you didn't look around very much before asking :-)
The parallel ZIP drive has been supported in the official kernel distribution since 1.3.74. A driver for the EZ135 has been available since May, although it won't get included in the official kernel until Linus opens up the the 2.1 tree. Meanwhile you can find it, and links to other related projects at
