Well, the term Linux is a bit broad these days. I've never seen any problems with PERC controllers on Redhat, CentOS, Oracle EL4, ESX, or Debian-flavor systems. All we've used at the office over the past couple years has been PowerEdge 2850s and 2950s servers running Linux. We have found bugs in the system BIOS (not to be confused with the PERC bios) which have required new releases from Dell to fix. :(

Actually, it technically is EQemu's doing since world and all zones are spawned as a separate process.
