Set Display variable - oracle installer

716107Aug 6 2009 — edited Aug 21 2009
Hi!
A quick query that has me tearing my hair out!
I'm trying to run the oracle installer on SuSE Enterprise 10.
I ran the DORIS script and followed the instructions in this wiki:
http://wiki.novell.com/index.php/Oracle10g_R2_Database_on_SLES10_for_i386_Step-by-Step_1

Unfortunately I have hit a wall.
The installation wont' continue because the DISPLAY variable isn't installed correctly.
I have tried every possible combination of ip address and no ip address that I can think of and nothing is working!
(I went through about 10 pages in a google search trying everything that had been suggested in every forum too)...

How do I find out what IP address should be in there? Is there a command I can run to check?
I'm installing the oracle database directly onto the same computer running SUSE.

Advice greatly appreciated!

Thanks!!
