As far as I know:

  • Ubuntu isn't certified with Oracle database
  • 11gXE is an old version; it comes without support anyway
  • so, if you hit any problems, don't expect "official" support from Oracle
  • there are walkthrougs available on the Internet which show how to install 11gXE on Ubuntu, so it is possible (I never did it; never had to)
    • people who did it usually spent days if not weeks to make it work

Basically, YMMV.
