does Hibernate not support DB2/LINUXZ64?

Hibernate version:3.2.6

Name and version of the database I am using:DB2/LINUXZ64

when I tried to running the program, Hibernate told me:
... ...
Hibernate Dialect must be explicitly set for database: DB2/LINUXZ64
... ...

but there is not such Dialect for DB2/LINUXZ64 now, does Hibernate not support DB2/LINUXZ64 so far?

or someway I can solve this issue?

Thank you so much.

I just found out I have to use:
... ...
<property name="hibernate.dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.DB2Dialect</property>
... ...

why not
... ...
<property name="dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.DB2Dialect</property>
... ...

The DB2 dialect should work for both Linux and Windows version of DB2. I've used it on a number of implementations and haven't had a problem.
