and you are logged in as user root or as another user to the machine you are working on? if you login as "normal" user and open a terminal in which you get root, you have to give root permission to use the normal users display. try to open a second terminal and run the command "xhost +" from that terminal and leave the terminal open!
I am logged in as root and from there logged in as the oracle user.
What I do is all fysically on the machine itself.
What I have done now is as you told open an other terminal and excute.
This does'nt have any effect. When I run the installer I still get >>> Could not execute auto check for display colors using command /usr/openwin/bin/xdpyinfo. Check if the DISPLAY variable is set.

comsat
COMSAT(8) BSD System Manager's Manual COMSAT(8)NAME
comsat -- biff server
SYNOPSIS
comsat [-l]
DESCRIPTION
comsat is the server process which receives reports of incoming mail and notifies users if they have requested this service. comsat receives
messages on a datagram port associated with the ``biff'' service specification (see services(5) and inetd(8)). The one line messages are of
the form:
user@mailbox-offset
If the user specified is logged in to the system and the associated terminal has the owner execute bit turned on (by a ``biff y''), the
offset is used as a seek offset into the appropriate mailbox file and the first 7 lines or 560 characters of the message are printed on the
user's terminal. Lines which appear to be part of the message header other than the ``From'', ``To'', ``Date'', or ``Subject'' lines are not
included in the displayed message.
OPTIONS
The comsat program supports this option:
-l The -l option turns on syslogd(8) log messages.
FILES
/var/run/utmpx to find out who's logged on and on what terminals
SEE ALSO biff(1), inetd(8), syslogd(8).
BUGS
The message header filtering is prone to error. The density of the information presented is near the theoretical minimum.
Users should be notified of mail which arrives on other machines than the one to which they are currently logged in.
The notification should appear in a separate window so it does not mess up the screen.
comsat runs as root so that it can open the users maildrop.
HISTORY
The comsat command appeared in 4.2BSD.
