Hi
I think there are two approaches:
1) Install Xvfb and start it with the following command (and export DISPLAY):
Xvfb :99 -ac -noreset &
export DISPLAY=:99
2) Try to use QCoreApplication instead of QApplication:
app = QApplication(sys.argv)
QgsApplication.setPrefixPath("/home/stefan/Apps/qgis_master", True)
QgsApplication.initQgis()
I don't know what the drawbacks are when using QCoreApplication.
Regards
Stefan
