-------------------
Basically install a dummy driver:

sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-dummy
Then write it in the /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/xorg.conf file (create one, if it does not exist):

Section "Device"
    Identifier  "Configured Video Device"
    Driver      "dummy"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
    Identifier  "Configured Monitor"
    HorizSync 31.5-48.5
    VertRefresh 50-70
EndSection

Section "Screen"
    Identifier  "Default Screen"
    Monitor     "Configured Monitor"
    Device      "Configured Video Device"
    DefaultDepth 24
    SubSection "Display"
    Depth 24
    Modes "1024x800"
    EndSubSection
EndSection
Then restart the computer.

You may also want to disable kernel mode setting if that doesn't work as-is.

Thank you ,

But I will use a Dummy Vga adapter, much easier for me. I tried these post last week and had to re-install the Os!!!

Unfortunely the Dummy vga adapter did not work

BryanC:
Read up on xvfb. It will create a virtual display in the framebuffer.


--- Code: ---Xvfb :1 -screen 0 800x600x16
--- End code ---

I would probably connect the monitor and check the boot logs to see where the boot is failing first.
