Oxygen, just like SmartSVN, is a 100% Java based application so for SVN
over SSH we use the Ganymed SSH-2 for Java library
(http://www.ganymed.ethz.ch/ssh2/).
This library does not have native native components that communicate
with ssh-agent so the only way to authenticate is to enter the right
authentication information in the Authentication dialog.

You can either authenticate with a User/Password pair or by filling in
the User\Private key\Passphrase fields (all fields: Usename, Private Key
and Passphrase are required).
I tested both authentication methods on Mac and Linux and they were both
successful.
If you fail the authentication, then probably the data you entered is
not correct (maybe you forgot to specify the username or entered the
path to the public key instead of the path to the private one).
Please tell us how this goes.
Best regards,
Radu
