Hi Fabrizio.

We used SuSE Enterprise Linux 8. Important was to install SP3 for it. Here are some infos from the pengiun systems:

# modinfo qla2300|more filename: /lib/modules/2.4.21-215-smp/kernel/drivers/scsi/qla2300.o description: "QLogic Fibre Channel Host Adapter Driver" author: "QLogic Corporation" license: "GPL"
# uname -a Linux octopus 2.4.21-215-smp #1 SMP Mon Apr 26 17:28:18 UTC 2004 i686 unknown

In the begining we had problems with the qlogic fire channel drivers. But what I heard now is that those problems disappeared. Just get the most recent one for your distribution (we could download for SuSE SEL oder RedHat Enterprise Server).

Now Oracle 9R2 is running without any problems on it.

HTH.
