Hello Folks,
Its because of "setuid" permission issue. If you
want to install Oracle
application please login as a normal user (regular user it
could be
oracle ) once you logged IN open a terminal and issue
"xhost + " alone.
Then start firing the Oracle installer from the appropriate
path. This
should work for you.
Thanks
Jason.

Subject: Re: [rhn-users] Re: Xlib connection
Are you logging in as root then su - oracle?
Have you tried logging in as oracle from the login prompt?
(I think root
for some reason doesn't want to give up it's xhost.)
