Just a few clues I’ve found about running the same binary without a GUI:
- GTK supports running a program without display:
http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/2.12/gtk-General.html#gtk-init-check.
This doesn’t tell if it’s possible in wxWidgets though.I see it calls gtk-init-check in wxApp::Initialize.
I can subclass Initialize, call the original one while suppressing
the error message and ignore the return value. It seems to be
working.This is working. A few more things and I’ll upload it.
We’ll need to tell people to install the GTK libraries. Do you remember the apt-get command to install GTK, and can you install it without having a GUI installed?
It was probably apt-get install libgtk2.0-0. You can search for
available packages like this: “apt-cache search libgtk”.
I’ll give Drupal accounts to the bitcoin.org translators, so they can
keep the translations up to date.
