----------------------------------------
Xvfb plugin installed on Hudson, waiting for
https://engineering.redhat.com/rt/Ticket/Display.html?id=146729 before giving a try to
Xvfb.
Let's hope it will resolve the issue we sometimes have with some slaves. I am also
confident that it will make us save a not-that-small part of time for UI test executions.
Use Xvfb for build jobs instead of Xvnc

Key: JBIDE-10974
URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-10974
Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Enhancement
Components: Build/Releng
Environment: any
Reporter: Mickael Istria
Assignee: Mickael Istria
Fix For: 3.3.0.Beta3
Xvfb is a minimalist in-memory X server, without VNC. For our use-case, Xvfb may be
faster and may avoid some of the issues we have with Xvnc.
A Jenkins plugin exists to use Xvfb in Jenkins:

It requires Xvfb to be install in the slaves we use of IC, and the plugin installed on
Jenkins.
