You need to set the variable after switching to the oracle user (at least, check if it is still set).

Hi,
Can I please know how you resolved your 'Display 256 problem' as I am having the problem.
Actually, I follow the installation process in the Oracle Installation guide for Solaris x86 and when I execute the ./runInstaller
it starts the prerequisite checks and stops at the 'Checking monitor' bit.
I have set the display env variable as follows:
DISPLAY=localhost:0.0
export DISPLAY
as the oracle user and its still does not work.
The configuration of my system is as follows:
a. Intel Pentium D 5.6GHz with Dual L2 Cache
- 2.8GHz x 2 (2 Cores Running @ 2.8GHz) = 5.6GHz
- 64bit CPU Backwards compatibility with 32Bit
VIA P4M900 1066MHz PCI-EXpress Motherboard
b. Chipset -
- North Bridge: VIA P4M900
- South Bridge: VIA VT8237A
c. Graphics - Integrated Chrome9TM HC IGP
- Share Memory: Maximum up to 256MB
d. Memory - 2048MB DDR2 667MHz PC5300 RAM Memory
- Memory Configuration: DDR2 200Pin DIMM
- Memory Chip Stack: 64*8
- Transfer Bus: 667MHz
- Rating: PC5300
e. Storage - Maxtor 250GB Serail ATA 2.0 with 8MB Cache
- Transfer Rate = 3GB/s
- Rotational SPeed = 7200 RPM
I googled and found I may need to download and install Xfree86 which I did. Actually, I downloaded, installed and configured using 'kdmconfig'.
It still doesnt work.
I will appreciate HELP.
Thanks in advance.
