RE: What is needed for a minimal X(org) client installation? [Solved]

Hi

This is what I'm trying to accomplish, sorry if that wasn't clear.

I have now (reluctantly) installed all the packages listed but still the
Oracle installer failed, complaining about libXp.so.6 missing, so I
installed xorg-x11-deprecated-libs which provides this.  But it still
didn't work.

Then I rechecked the Oracle installer error messages:
Xlib: connection to "localhost:10.0" refused by server
Xlib: PuTTY X11 proxy: wrong authentication protocol attempted 

And after reading
http://the.earth.li/~sgtatham/putty/0.60/htmldoc/Chapter10.html#errors-x
11-proxy I realized that:
* when starting system-config-mouse (as my normal user) I was always
prompted for the root password
* I had used "su - oracle" before starting the installer

Running system-config-mouse still fails, even after logging in as root
via ssh with X-forwarding enabled, but at least I'll be able to install
the Oracle Client now.

I'll have to try and install it later with fewer packages installed, for
now this project needs to be completed.

Thanks for the help

Bram

P.s. In my defense: I'm just back from vacation, looks like my mind
isn't fully up-to-speed yet. :)
