[*** notice for Bryce Harrington - how to install and run xvfb on Intrepid

Outpun in stdout:
[*** First 3 lines are unexplanable to me, the most of others are
related to fonts (why don't they install during package installation if
package requres them?) and the very lst one - looks very strange:***]
----------------

[config/hal] couldn't initialise context: (null) ((null))
----------------
Those errors appear every time any application connects to Xvfb service.
After Xvfb shutdown also every time appears another error:
----------------
FreeFontPath: FPE "/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc" refcount is 2, should be 1;
fixing.

SUMMARY:
It seems that xvfb package assumes to be installed on desktop (X-server
enabled) Ubuntu version only.
Question to mantainers - are all needed packages and paths doublecheked to be
relevant for server version too?
