There is a -headless switch to the VM that you can use. For instance, I run a
Swiki like this:
#!/bin/sh
cd /home/httpd/ComSwiki
/usr/local/bin/squeak3.1 -headless -memory 40M squeak.image &
If you use the OSProcess module, you can go headless after starting, and then
reconnect to a UI later.
However, I believe you still have to link the VM with the X libraries.
