Hi Paul,

We have firefox on the Linux builders:

 > getOption("browser")
[1] "/usr/bin/firefox"
 > browseURL("https://www.bioconductor.org/packages/igvR";)

However it could be that this works, not because firefox somehow gets 
started in headless mode, but because we have Xvfb (X11 virtual frame 
buffer) run as a service in the background so firefox is able to connect 
to that. I'm not sure.

Hope this helps,
H.
