There is not much choice for Linux UPnP clients :
You can have a look a the djmount filesystem ( http://djmount.sf.net/ ), 
to give UPnP capabilities to any Linux player.
Or you can look at the GeeXboX bootable CD ( http://geexbox.org/ ) for a 
pre-packaged solution.

I have no recommendation, but you can look at :
TwonkyVision MediaServer
GeeXboX uShare
GMediaServer
MediaTomb
