QGIS » QGIS Application

Hi there,

I am having a problem with Qgis when connecting to my Oracle Spatial Database. My tables contain the SDO_Geometry column, however, Qgis doesn't list these tables as "without Geometries". If I use this simple Oracle Tutorial it doesn't work either. Could someone please help me on this? Thanks in advance!
