I've put IDL on a redhat 7 system. The only problem I've had is with
the license manager, not that this isn't a small problem since this
is the way RSI prefers to do the licensing. When I had an
evaluation sort of license that didn't require the license manager,
I had no problem.

There is a bug report in on the license manager issue but it only
went in on Friday. Besides, it's unclear to me that this isn't a
problem with my particular installation hardware (bp6 board with
dual celerons). It may be that other, less exotic installations will
have no problems at all.

My advice: try it and see.
