    You need to have xwindows setup in order to install oracle 8i. Type in at the prompt 'clock' . If you do get analog clock, means you have xwindows setup. Otherwise you have to set it up. talk to your unix admin, you might be having some xwindows tools. If you don't have find some third party tools like xwin-32 from Start inc. whatever...

    login as oracle user and at the comand prompt say
    startx

    and then do thisUse a text editor to edit the .bash_profile file in the oracle account home directory.
    $ emacs ~oracle/.bash_profile

    You may get this error:
    Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
    Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server
    emacs: Cannot connect to X server :0.
    Check the DISPLAY environment variable or use `-d'.
    Also use the `xhost' program to verify that it is set to permit
    connections from your machine.

    If so, do the following.
    Open a new terminal window.
    $ xhost +localhost
    Now, back in the oracle terminal
    $ export DISPLAY=localhost:0
    $ emacs ~oracle/.bash_profile


    Start a new terminal
    $ xhost +localhost
    $ su - oracle
    Enter oracle password
    $ export DISPLAY=localhost:0.0



    Try this procedure
