Using Xvfb
[[Category:SPO600]]
The X Window System is a client-server graphics system:
* the '''server''' manages the display hardware, each typically including one or more video cards and monitors, one or more keyboards, and one or more mice or other pointing devices.
== Using Xvfb ==
<code>Xvfb</code> is a dummy X server that does not display output on any device. This is useful where a program needs to connect to an X server, perhaps for testing purposes, but the actual image drawn does not have to be viewed anywhere. Xvnb would typically be invoked with a command such as:
Xvfb :0 -ac
