Doubt about Xen PV
Hi, I am new here, and learning a lot.
I want to run some graphical applications on a Xen PV VPS (Love VPS company), but I am not sure if I should install xorg or xvfb (virtual X framebuffer). If I can install xorg because Xen "virtualizes" its own graphic framebuffer, then I could save some RAM memory, because xvfb writes its virtual framebuffer in RAM. Could you help me? Thanks a lot in advance...

If you can install xorg, then use xorg, because it will use less resources.
If you can't install xorg because the hardware isn't virtualized, then install xvfb.
Thanks Damian. Great idea. I will try xorg; if platform doesn't accept it, then try xvfb... That's all and simple.
