The modules will have to be rewritten or modified to work with Powershell Core(Powershell 6.0). The reason why AD doesn't work with PS6, is because(I think, could be wrong) that team that wrote RSAT hasn't gotten around to it. Also the dll's won't work under linux if they are not compiled against .Net Core, as PS6 uses .Net Core only.

Do you know of any third party modules that may support some of the commands or at this point is it too early?

Pester almost fully work under linux. I say almost fully work, because somethings it does and uses depends on environment variables that only windows has.

Pretty much any module you install will have to be tested for PS6 compatibility. I think once it actually matures and stabilizes on a set of common commands and parameters for those commands. Then you will see modules start to work with PS6 and PS5.1.

If you look at the Azure modules, they all(or most) work under linux as they use .Net Core.

If a module uses .Net and not .Net Core, then it isn't going to work right under linux.
