Open source programs can be modified by anyone. Sometimes they are maintained by groups of volunteers, and sometimes companies make most of the contribution. The comapny, however, does not own the project.
I am almost certain that they have played before (Kramnik is generally considered one of the top players in the world, and the top players tend to end up in a lot of the same tournaments), although I am not sure whether Kramnik has ever won. It is, however, likely. What is important here is not that Kasparov lost a game, a somewhat common occurence, but that he lost the match, which is much more important.
The school I just graduated from, duPont Manual magnet High School in Louisville, Kentucky, has Linux installed in most of the systems in one of the computer labs. It is used extensively in the networking class and is the operating system of choice among most of the tech-savvy students. However, I don't know of any other schools in the state which run Linux.
