# Advanced Linux considerations

There are two headless server scenarios that require special procedures on a Linux system.

The two headless node scenarios are:

* A system which has no video card
* A system which has a video card, but does not have an X server installed

In some situations, particularly if your server does not have a video card, you will have to perform both procedures to properly generate reports with the Pentaho Server.

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.pentaho.com/install/9.3-install/pentaho-installation-overview-cp/archive-installation/archive-installation-process/prepare-your-linux-environment-for-an-archive-install/advanced-linux-considerations.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
