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

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

Again it looks like I've been thinking faster than I was typing.  Yes,
after I realized that I had used "su -" to run the command as oracle I
also realized this was causign the X forwarding to fail.  So, as you
wrote, after logging in as oracle via ssh with X forwarding enabled I
was able to start the installer, hence the [Solved] in the subject line.

Sorry again if I wasn't clear.

Regards

Bram
