+Start Xvfb X11 server and attach the sandbox to this server. 
+Xvfb, short for X virtual framebuffer, performs all graphical operations in memory 
+without showing any screen output. Xvfb is mainly used for remote access and software 
+testing on headless servers.
+.br
+
+.br
+On Debian platforms Xvfb is installed with the command \fBsudo apt-get install xvfb\fR.
+This feature is not available when running as root.
+.br
+
+.br
+Example: remote VNC access
+.br
+
+.br
+On the server we start a sandbox using Xvfb and openbox
+window manager. The default size of Xvfb screen is 800x600 - it can be changed
+in /etc/firejail/firejail.config (xvfb-screen). Some sort of networking (--net) is required
+in order to isolate the abstract sockets used by other X servers.
