If you're serious about wanting some stolen laptop protection for Linux, I've used Prey for about 3 years. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prey_(software) That's not a ringing endorsement, since the laptops I use it on have not been stolen. I can only say that it hasn't gotten in my way, and that one of the computers goes for quite some time without being used and Prey occasionally notifies me "Hey, I haven't seen laptop so-and-so in a while...
