Help with gimps perl-server

ceo@Novanix.com (2002-12-01 at 1940.28 -0500):

inside gimps gui. The problem is this system has no xwindows and is a linux web hosting server without a display.

For gimp 1.2 you must have X "running", but you do not need X with video card, mouse and the full pack, VNC or Xvfb are enough. That way you can run gimp with a fake display and keep it running there, with server being launched in the same command line (use script-fu for that) and the rest done via request to server.

The problem is that gimp always uses gtk, and that requires the display, so no display, no gimp (1.3 can run without display... but perl has not been updated yet, iirc).
