Define Linux. Check the support matrix. I liked running on Redhat, but Oracle seemed to drop support for the free versions after 7.1 or so. Anyway, you may want support and so you may want to purchase some of the enterprise releases of linux, such as from RedHat or SuSE that are included in the support matrix.
For an inexpensive test environment I moved to Mandrake 9.0 and Oracle 9.2.0 which went together like a glove. It does require .5GB or ram, however and is not supported. I don't care about that for this particular effort. Free at last!
