I received a suggestion off the list and it worked well. The solution is


# xhost +localhost

$ DISPLAY=":0" ; export DISPLAY ; /usr/X11R6/bin/xclock and Voila!!!!.
This time i did not use ignoresysprereqs. The installer came up
properly.

                had replied to this. Thanks for all.


        One suggestion I didn't see was to use vncserver.
        
        Simple to use, and you can then just use vncviewer from your
desktop. 
        

        eg:
        
        login as oracle
        # set vnc password
        vncpasswd
        
        # run vncserver on port 10
        
        vncserver :10
        
        Just download RealVNC to your desktop, connect to <your
server>:10
        and supply the password.
