Michael,

A couple things come to mind when I see this kind of error:

1. Why is it looking in "/users/oracle/./tk2cxterm.res" I would think it would need to find this file somewhere else like under ORACLE_HOME/guicommon2/tk21/terminal..
2. If this is a fresh install, then you should be running the installer from a link directory after executing "/cdrom/orainst/start.sh"
3. Try setting your ORACLE_TERM to something like vt100 and see if that works.
