I have a GUI application to be run on a headless server, in cron
periodically.

It runs well on local laptop in cron  as I have logged in a GUI environment.

Ex-

10 10 *  * * display:0  firefox

I have to run the same application on a remote server where I have SSH
login as root.

The server has all the gnome and kde installed.

But the GUI app is not running as I did not logged in GUI.

I don't know if the ctrl+F7 area has only gdm login screen or someuser has
logged in already.

Is there any way to login as GUI user remotely even no one logged in GUI
locally ?

Thanks for your inputs.
