Just a note, I have run in to this issue as well. The Oracle installer fails to
launch, only briefly displaying the setup console. This occurs with Oracle
10g/11 oracle products that use the Oracle Universal Installer.

I was able to work around this issue by running setup with the command line:

setup -J-Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true

On Windows this parameter is used to work around older video cards that have a
conflict between DirectDraw and OpenGL. 

The Oracle Universal Installer does not use either, but the JRE it runs on top
of by default tries to initialize them anyway. 

Or course, ideally Wine should be able to run it without this workaround. 

This workaround can enable some of the Oracle products to install more or less
successfully, although the Oracle DB Client currently will also encounter a
fatal problem with setting permissions on the folder (bug#17672)
