Could not execute auto check for display colors using command /usr/bin/X11/

Question

Hello,
In a work trying to install ORACLE 11gR2 software in AIX 5.3,
export DISPLAY=local_IPXXX:0.0
xclock
it works, can see the clock.
then go to dowloaded oracle, run
/xxx/11g203_AIX64_5L/database-> ./runInstaller
Your platform requires the root user to perform certain pre-installation
OS preparation. The root user should run the shell script 'rootpre.sh' before
you proceed with Oracle installation. rootpre.sh can be found at the top level
of the CD or the stage area.
Answer 'y' if root has run 'rootpre.sh' so you can proceed with Oracle
installation.
Answer 'n' to abort installation and then ask root to run 'rootpre.sh'.
Has 'rootpre.sh' been run by root? [y/n] (n)
y
