The cocoon2install docs explain how to get rid of Xvfb when installing
with tomcat 4 (it's outa beta, so there's no reason not to us it
anymore): in this configuration, you'd use a java implementation of the
awt, and what's more, one that's really cross-platform. Guess it works
with tomcat 3.3 also, though.
