Of course. The VT100 Protection Squad is on its way to apprehend you.
Please wait patiently at your keyboard until they arrive to take to your
reeducation on the pure ways of UNIX™.
Joke aside: under normal circumstances most headless systems won't have
any Xserver running on them.
If you use Xvfb or Xpra or Xvncserver I guess you have a special reason
to do so.
Maybe David has one, too. It'd be intereting to read about it. But until
then I guess this is a sort of XY-Problem we are seeing.
