You won't need the X server present on that machine, but you'd need
the X utilities, then forward the X request via ssh or xauth. I think
you'd also need to set the DISPLAY variable to the host you'd output
the display (works just fine with my Oracle installation on headless
chickens as compared to using xhost+ ...)
