[SunHELP] Problems with AWT, and X Servers

[Joshua Fielden]

We have a problem, being a Java house, and beset by Java-based tools that use AWT -- AWT requires an X Server in order to render primitives. I am tasked with coming up with a good 'null frame-buffer' implementation that can run on a machine with the minimum amount of libraries, on headless server systems, to display AWT-based Web-browser apps. I'm hoping, before I embark on this Ship of Fools(tm), that someone has invented this wheel before, and can point me at a good reference for getting this done.

TIA
