10g on Fedora Core 2 - all Oracle backgr. proc. show as: .../oracle.bin

Fedora Core 2, kernel 2.6.8-1.521, i686
Oracle 10g Ent. 10.1.0.2.0

Summary: The database is up and running, but there are no background processes, I.e. ora_pmon_, ora_smon_... in when *ps auf* or *pd -ef* are issued, apparently Oracle background processes are all named oracle.bin ?!

A fresh install of 10g two days ago and it's up and running.

I had only one error showing up: ORA-12175: Unable to create shared memory segment, during the first DBCA run. I resolved it with the following:

cd $ORACLE_HOME/bin
mv oracle oracle.bin

cat >oracle <<"EOF"

#!/bin/bash
export DISABLE_HUGETLBFS=1
exec $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle.bin $@
EOF
chmod +x oracle

After that the database was up and running, but there's this one thing I've noticed: instead of seeing Oracle background processes by name, I.e. ora_pmon, ora_smon, ora_lgwr ...

this is what I'm getting:

ps -ef

Any ideas about the reason why this is happening and how to see 'REAL' oracle background process names?
