Oh! I was thinking more on the lines: if you are close to qawra I'll offer you a beer at the 2 cherries bar as fuel :-p
BUT from the little php I know, AFAIK php can store its session data in either a db or the filesystem. If drupal is using the latter it might be that the different distros use different default locations for this (/tmp/httpd or /var/lock or something); so it might be a permissions thing. Also the httpd process runs under different users on different distros. I think fedora calles it apache and ubuntu calls is www-data. I don't know where these settings might be but check php.ini and /etc/httpd/conf.d and drupal's own config. And BTW make sure the AllowOverride settings in the <directory> stanza of the hhtpd.conf allows drupals' .htaccess settings if there are any. One needs to have a close look at apache's access.log and error.log to have a better idea. I don't have access to those. Hope this helps.
