The question can pertain to 'does Oracle Linux 6.4, Solaris 11.0, and Solaris 
10u1-u10 work or install on the new SPARC T5 or SPARC64-X servers?'.

Oracle Linux does not run on any SPARC systems, only x86/x64.   I've
not kept track of if the SPARC support in the upstream kernel has T5
support yet, but few Linux distros actually build SPARC versions.

Neither Solaris 11.0 nor Solaris 10u1-u10 work directly on the T5
hardware - you need Solaris 11.1 or Solaris 10 1/13 (u11) to run
on the hardware, though you can run slightly older versions in a
guest domain.

I have no idea if enough technical info was or will be released to
allow porting OpenSolaris-derived distros such as OpenSXCE to T5/M5.
