Your platform requires the root user to perform certain pre-installation
OS preparation.  The root user should execute '/usr/sbin/slibclean' on all the nodes before
you proceed with Patchset Installation.
Answer 'y' if root has run '/usr/sbin/slibclean' so you can proceed with Oracle
Patchset installation.
Answer 'n' to abort installation and then ask root to run '/usr/sbin/slibclean'.
Has '/usr/sbin/slibclean' been run by root? [y/n] (n)

Depending on the Unix Shell, you can use one of the following commands as examples to set the DISPLAY environment variable:
- For csh:                      % setenv DISPLAY 192.168.1.128:0.0
- For sh, ksh and bash:         $ DISPLAY=192.168.1.128:0.0; export DISPLAY
Use the following command to see what shell is being used:
        echo $SHELL
Use the following command to view the current DISPLAY environment variable setting:
        echo $DISPLAY

To enable client users to access the X Server, open an xterm, dtterm or xconsole as the user that started the session and type the following command:
% xhost +
To test that the DISPLAY environment variable is set correctly, run a X11 based program that comes with the native operating system such as 'xclock':
        % <full path to xclock.. see below>
If you are not able to run xclock successfully, please refer to your PC-X Server or OS vendor for further assistance.
Typical path for xclock: /usr/bin/X11/xclock
