It may be anecdotal, but LSI MegaRAID cards generally seem to work pretty well with Linux. The only problem I've ever seen was a BIOS problem between the LSI and the motherboard, which was solved by flashing the BIOS on the motherboard with the latest version (it was grossly out of date anyway).
At Command Prompt we have also had some great success with the LSI cards. The only thing we didn't like is the obscure way you have to configure RAID 10.
