We use them with SuSE 9 Linux. We successfully followed that second rebook mentioned below and are using them with IBM IHS.
We have them configured as Accelerators - type CEX2A (as opposed to CEX2C - they can have different personalities) - under z/VM 5.2. We did have to put PTF for APAR VM63976 on because they were recognized as the wrong type without it. Just checked and that APAR applies to 5.1 as well.
