Mark,

If user "oracle" is the user that you're running the installer as then
yes, that's the simplest way to get it to work.

An alternative way to do it, albeit somewhat clumsy, is to use whatever
your currently running VNC X server is, and use SSH to start a session
as user "oracle", for the installation.  SSH will then take care of the
access rights to the VNC X server and X applications run from within the
SSH session should be able to display their interfaces in it.

Cheers,

Wez @ RealVNC ltd.
