Oracle allows the download, but eventually you will need a commercial license or development license to get the patches.
Most of the time you will need atleast one patch to install Oracle on Linux, unless you are using SuSe 8.1 Enterprise Server or SuSe 9.2 Enterprise Server. SuSe 8.1 has less trouble installing Oracle than 9.2, but 9.2 has the newer libraries that run with the updates, performance updates, etc.
If you are just one user, you can get a named user license for $149 bucks. Licenses / CPU are more expensive and start at $4,995 / CPU for Standard Edition One (2CPU limit). From what I have seen the cheapest license one can get with full support including updates is about $1500 bucks.
Most of the time you can try to get out of paying for development if you already pay for commercial production support.
