IANAL, but I doubt this is an issue.

It would be one thing if the artwork for their balloon was ripped off 
here, or if a derivative work was made using their logo. The simple fact 
that the artwork includes a hot-air balloon, though, in a theme for a 
Linux distro is just not enough to indicate IP infringement.
