BasicMicro officially does not support linux. I am not sure on third party
There is no Atom IDE for Linux at all. I wish there were, but there is not.
Basic Micro uses a proprietary bootloader for the Atoms, which makes it impossible to have a native IDE under Linux. You might be able to use Wine or some other Windows type emulator to run the Windows IDEs under Linux though if you have enough RAM.

I have successfully used the ATOM IDE with Wine and a serial cable. This was with Ubuntu, but I am pretty sure any linux distro would be fine.
I tried using the USB serial adapter, but had some issues with the driver.
Alternately you could also program the Atom Pro in C, using the Renesas H8S toolchain kit, since the Atom Pro core is based on the Hitachi H8 micro-controller. However you would have to use a different boot loader.
I don’t think this would work. The Atom PRO has a custom boot loader which is proprietary. You would likely have to erase the entire flash in order to program it in ‘C’/C++ using the Renesas HEW tools. I don’t think doing that to a $60.00 MCU module would be a good thing.
