Have you considered using Xvfb as minimal X-Server without visual
output ? I use this in combination with wine to run Windows
Service-Applications developed in Delphi (which haven't been ported
to fpc yet) on our linux server and it works fine.<br>

I researched this myself, but there is no clear answer.

It certainly depends on the platform. Linux/Windows ? On Linux,
the existing reporting engines rely on an X-server, which is not
very good for a web application. (our servers have no X
installed). For example, some people seem to have FastReport 4
running in FPC, so this is good, but requires X and is not
suitable for a webserver.
