Title:
  test suite uses current X server

Status in “notify-osd” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  The test suite uses the current X server to execute. This is a problem
  for folk doing interactive builds (and also folk using flymake and
  similar just-in-time background qa tools).

  Using xvfb should permit most X needing code to execute without using
  the current X server. I *think* xvfb supports GL extensions and so
  forth, but this needs checking. Tests that need human observation
  obviously can't be run in this mode; they should run in the current X
  server [for now].
