Hello, as in title: How to run an .exe program (with window interface) on linux without GUI ? is it even possible? Or I have to install GUI ?
I run linux without GUI to save some RAM resources. Any tricks/tips/ideas ?

Thanks in advice,
RobsoN.

Normally you would need to install X / VNC and wine, quite a alot HOWTO's on google.

But I found this to run an .exe with xvfb (X virtual framebuffer) instead of the "real" X: http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t=1390

That might save some RAM.
