[Peter Wu <lekensteyn@xxxxxxxxx>]

In June 2015 there was another attempt to get this patch merged[0], it
seems that people are now recommending/leaning towards replacing xf86
-video-dummy[1] by Xvfb[2][3].

The patch looks trivial enough to get merged, but maybe it never will
due to Xvfb deprecation (=WONTFIX)?
