Improve this questionWe need to run an application using the graphic card driver.
However the machine does not have a screen. Is it possible to have this running ?
Xfvb seems not be an option since it uses software rendering instead of the graphic card driver.
Thanks for your suggestions/answers.
Check out the VNC module for X. You can load it by editing your xorg.conf:
Section "Module"
Load "vnc"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Option "SecurityTypes" "None"
EndSection
It will connect X to the network instead of to a physical screen, and it supposedly supports hardware acceleration with some drivers.
