I can't help you with your problem, as I am also stuck with JK2 on SuSE 8.1.
However, I can give you a few hints, what the error message you get means.

The line specifies that Tomcat shall be run without an X server ("headless").
Before J2SDK 1.4.x the implementation of the AWT classes required some system
libraries that were (on Linux) only to be found when an X server was running.
But a "virtual X server" would suffice to do. This is a software package that
does everythin a real X server would do, except displaying something on screen.
Advantage: Other than XFree86 it can run under an arbitrary user account, which
is a potential plus for server security.

>From v 1.4.x of the JDK onwards this should not be necessary, as there is a new
set AWT implementation classes. So it doesn't matter if you are running a real
X server, a virtual one, or none.

Sorry, unfortunately I don't remember the exact name of the virtual name server
I used quite some time ago. You'll find information on this browsing the FAQ
for the Apache Cocoon (XML) project.

Good luck!
