You are correct the JNI card will only work with the Red-Hat version.
Further more JNI has no forseeable intent to move the driver to open
source. The last word I recieved was that they have little interest in
compiling there driver for everyone/kernel under the sun. At this time
only purchase a JNI driver if you have the intent to use supported kernel
version. This basically means look for a new version with the next Red
Hat release and its associated kernel.
