Linux installation, $DISPLAY and Vmware

Linux installation, $DISPLAY and Vmware

Hello!

I've problem installing OpManager in a guestVM (running SUSE Enterprise Server). When i try to install OpManager I get "The installer was unable to run in graphical mode. Try running the installer with the -console or -silent flag."

I've exported DISPLAY=localhost:0.0

If I install in text mode and try to run ./StartOpManagerServer.sh i get this error message:

se-sgq-mgm01:/opt/AdventNet/ME/OpManager/bin # ./StartOpManagerServer.sh
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.InternalError: Can't connect to X11 window server using 'localhost:0.0' as the value of the DISPLAY variable.

Is it possible to run OpManager inside an operating system running as a guest virtual machine on a Vmware GSX server? If so, how do I configur the graphical environment to do it?
