I'll do that. To provide a bit of context, certain applications we run (in java) require Xvfb to be running, and for whatever reason, we've been having issues with them dieing. Not having had a lot of time to try to use some dtrace magic on them, I wanted to move them into smf services, where the display number would be the most logical way to identify each instance. However it appears I'll just have to spell them out.
