Yes, I was almost sure you would get an error without an X-server (I wrote a 
note about it when I sent a few ideas to make the -nodisplay work).

I am not sure that we can work this out purely on the Jmol side. We can 
probably fix a few things, but in my experience, a few things may still require 
a X-server connection.

I have worked on a project where we didn't manage to produce image files 
without having a X-server. The solution we found was to configure Xvfb (a 
virtual frame buffer).

Have you the possibility to use Xvfb ? and then run Jmol as a batch using the 
display provided by Xvfb ?
