Now as far as video, who cares about that... servers don't need GUI

Tell that to our admins who run redhat and suse. Want to disable these
guys? Remove some X libraries. (The one guy who uses CLI uses telnet)

Yes they really have X on ALL of the servers.

What moron at that company did they talk to to get their jobs, are they on
good terms with said moron, and do they cover medical/dental and transit

Larry Ellison.

If you want to install Oracle on Linux (and *lots* of companies do,
so don't bleat about not infecting your system with closed-source),
you need X.

No, you only need a few libraries. The Display can be a local
workstation.

I know this, I've done it, as far back as 1998 when the universal
installer finally became somewhat *un-buggy* enough to be used. Of
course, this was on AIX, Tru64 and HP-UX mostly, but also Linux on the
Dev and QA systems. The only REAL problems I ran into ~2001 was when the
Pentium 4 was not recognized by the Java included on the installation
CDs. The only X stuff was some runtime libraries needed. Very little
compared to a full setup.
