Re: Oracle8i on linux install error

To the original poster, try using just "xhost +" instead of specifying the IP address.

To Pootie, I get the same error as you, on Caldera eServer, my error is:

SIGSEGVdump crashed.

I am getting _very frustrated_ as I have tried nearly everything. I believe your DISPLAY environment variable setting is correct as :0.0 if you are running from the console. I have what may seem like a very strange question, but what video card are you running? I actually see the installer screen flash up for half a second before it dies and I'm just taking a stab in the dark that it could be some kind of video driver/incompatibility problem with Java AWT.
