First, this has pretty much NOTHING to do with newbie linux.
You should have an Oracle environment file in /usr/local/bin named
oraenv. Source it for your environment using . /usr/local/bin/oraenv
Oracle also may not be running at all so log on as "sys as sysdba"
and start up the database then everything should work fine.
