I got it running under 2.2.8 a few months ago, but every time I started it, the ADSM server running on our big OS/390 mainframe abended. This is widely considered to be a bad thing. (The mainframe's administrator certainly thought so.) I saw a posting to one of the FreeBSD lists about a week ago which identified the cause of the server's death as a buffer overflow problem. Last time I checked, IBM listed the Linux client as unsupported, so I don't imaging they are very interested in hearing that we are having problems running it in emulation mode. (I am leaning on our regional support rep to suggest a FreeBSD port. I don't think I'm going to get very far though.)
