I'm planning on running a bunch of servers to run a program that needs an X display. I'm currently using nomachine (NX) which works great, except I can't figure out how to get it to automatically launch a virtual GNOME display on startup (so I can configure gnome to auto-login and run my program) so I don't have to connect to each machine for it to start a display. any suggestions?

thanks
