Are you able to load an oracle connection? 

ie. Create a file oracle.conn with the following content:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Connection>
    <Name>MyConnection</Name>
    <Provider>OSGeo.KingOracle.3.3</Provider>
    <ConnectionString>[Connection parameters]</ConnectionString>
</Connection>

and then right click the "Connections" node selecting oracle.conn 

Email me if this doesn't work.
