I think you can. The Xvnc doesnt rely on framebuffer or any hardware device
so it should be possible.

Subject: VNC server on a system without any graphics system whatsoever?


Hey folks.

Is it possible to create a "fake" VNC server?  I'm sure it is, but has
anyone done it, or are there any comments on what would need to be done.

Lets say I have an embedded device with no display whatsoever (not even any
display hardware), connected via Ethernet.  I want to use the Java Viewer
(or any viewer, really) and connect to this device to view a bunch of
screens that have been created *somewhere* in the embedded device by an
application that I've written to handle all the mouse and keyboard events
coming over the network.  No changes to the viewer really, but a server for
completely abstract display.

Any thoughts?
