Java AWT will need underlying GUI services, on Unix type systems, that is
provided by X. So the claiming is right. In addition, you may have to
manually start JServ. ( I have tried the autostart from Apache server, but
everytime the servlet with AWT code in it runs, I got the error message
indicating X windows service not correctly setup). But I really want to run
it under autostart, so could someone let me know if they got the servlet
having AWT code run on Unix systems with a JServ autostart from Apache server
(not theoretical answers).
