If you don't need to see the graphics and just need the application up as a 
service, you can run it using Xvfb. I've done that before for graphical 
programs that I want to run in batch mode across a simple telnet or ssh without 
X11 forwarding.

I need to run a networked proprietary graphical linux application. It doesn't 
need any interaction from my end -- it can run without any human input. But it 
needs to be running for my other processes (in SmartOS zones) to communicate 
with a particular service.

Is it possible to set this up in an LX zone? Does X11 work there without a 
screen? I know that it works on KVM zones, due to a virtual screen or 
something, so that's my backup plan. But would prefer the performance and 
DTrace availability in LX zones.

Thanks,
