I think OpenMosix tried to do this but went defunct quite some time ago.
LinuxMPI seems to have taken over the source code, but I am not sure it does
what you want.
In short, I don't know if there is anything that can sum the computational
power of multiple systems and transparently make it look like a single super
fast machine.
Well in the large sense there must be, since about 80% of the top supercomputers are linux
clusters (see
http://www.top500.org/statistics/overtime/ and choose "Operating
System"). And, there seems to be some distros built for it (see:
http://www.xtreemos.eu/ ). But I kind of hate to switch distros from one I'm comfy
with to one I'm not...
