Yes, Oracle has geared up their tech support to provide Linux support as well. However, AFAIK you need to have a support contract with the Linux vendor.

I suspect Oracle will punt tech support questions to RH or Novell if the TARs are not relevant to an Oracle environment.

That should not be much of a problem for organizations that are smart enough to put Oracle on it's own server and strip unnecessary stuff from the server ...

Perhaps an Oracle employee could comment *** (When I'd used them in the past (2002), they were good - but I was an employee at the time.)
