Description

xvfb is a virtual display for linux operative system, and with this library https://github.com/drobota/robotframework-xvfb you can run robotframework in xvfb display,
so you can run test that needs a display (for example test with selenium2library) in a server environment.

i tried to make the same thing with sikuli,

but taking a look ad the failure screenshot in the sikuli_captured,

i understand that sikuli is not look at the virtual display, but it is using the normal display.

there is a way to say sikuli driver to use the virtual display environment?

thanks

Research direction

Start by tracing how the Java-based Sikuli driver selects its display and compare that behavior with the xvfb setup described in the issue. Determine whether Sikuli can target the virtual display; done means documenting the configuration or clearly confirming that a library change is required.
