Thanks for the message Vince.
I followed the steps mentioned in the manual in the
oracle CD. The installer script is runInstaller.
The remote machine is a redhat 6.0 linux in the US.
Yes, i enabled x clients on my local machine (xhost
+). After those meassages came out, the installer
window didnt show up. if indeed those errors were
X-related, how i wish there were command-line options
to do that. Are there good oracle+linux howto
resources you can suggest aside from that coming from
oracle? also, if i use my local machine as the X
server as the display machine, is it necessary that
the remote machine be installed with full X libraries?
thanks.
