Well, based on objective testing, and not on subjective second-guessing, we

did you test both the xvfb as well as a hardware based X server? I dont
see why xvfb will have much impact difference if there is a tdm card vs
not having one.
(for those that dont know, xvfb ius the x virtual framebuffer, no video
hardware is used for that)
Yes, it looks like you could assemble an alternative setup using xvfb
instead of VNC server, which actually does a very similar thing. VNC's
advantages are that (a) you can "visually tap into" each of its virtual
screens for maintenence purposes, and (b) you can start up lots of
simultaneous independent virtual screens, one for each Unix account (not
a real limitation if you only want one Skype channel).
The good thing about both alternatives is that you avoid any potential
hardware conflict problems (mentioned elsewhere in this thread) if you
have Zap hardware in addition to ChanSkype, since you're not using any
graphics hardware at all.
I'll freely admit I don't know much about xvfb, never having used it.
Correct me if I said something wrong.
Cheers,
Juan
