Linux Error: 13: Permission denied

I have a 10.2 database on a suse10 system, it used to work fine but now I'm getting this error:

###############################################################################
oracle@linux:~> sqlplus "/as sysdba"

SQL*Plus: Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production on Sun May 14 11:06:53 2006

Connected to an idle instance.

SQL> startup
ORA-09925: Unable to create audit trail file
Linux Error: 13: Permission denied
Additional information: 9925
###############################################################################

I have read it could be a sticky bit problem but is seems to be OK:
###############################################################################
oracle@linux:~> ls -l $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle
-rwsr-s--x 1 oracle oinstall 93162090 2006-04-29 18:45 /oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/bin/oracle
###############################################################################

In fact, if I give the permission I get the same:

###############################################################################
oracle@linux:~> chmod 6751 $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle
oracle@linux:~> ls -l $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle
-rwsr-s--x 1 oracle oinstall 93162090 2006-04-29 18:45 /oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/bin/oracle
###############################################################################

Do you see what my problem is?

Thanks in advance.
