If the links work okay on Windows Adobe Reader but not Linux Adobe Reader, and you are using relative pathnames in your links, then this could be a Linux Adobe Reader problem. Several versions of Adobe Reader on various platforms are notorious for document links not working, especially if the link has to open a document in a different directory. You could try updating your Linux Adobe Reader version, although bug-fixed versions of Reader are not always rolled out on all platforms - Linux users often have to wait a long time for a fixed version. Or you could (as I have been forced to do by this chronic and recurring bug) abandon Reader altogether and use xpdf instead.
