I find it useful in limited situations to run VNC. Mostly to keep a
desktop active with a variety of terminals or browsers going and
possible to share with multiple users simultaneously. I run it on a
headless machine (which does have a video card, though it's never been
attached to a monitor.)

You're probably looking for Xvfb (this doesn't need anything in-kernel).

You shouldn't need any video card or Linux kernel framebuffer to run a VNC
server. Fr

Xvfb doesn't do what you want?

As a TightVNC server. I was looking for the proper Linux kernel graphics
framebuffer to compile into the kernel to support a virtual vnc
framebuffer.
I did see some mini-pci video cards on ebay that I was considering.

Does anyone have a HOWTO regarding the installation of TightVNC on a 5501?
e.g What video cards - vesa, radion included within the kernel? I am
running Gentoo Linux with an internal disk, xorg-server, Gnome X11 but can
not get the display to open.
I am not using any video adapter and was told to u
