I have been dissatisfied with owncloud, as have many IT people I've talked with.  Now I use Synctuary http://conceptblossom.com
Full disclosure:  I founded Concept Blossom and created Synctuary due to limitations with competing alternatives such as Boxcryptor/Encfs.

The crypto parts are open source.  http://tinhatrandom.org and http://cbcrypt.org
We haven't released the linux client yet.  It is currently top development priority, so it should be ready soon.
