If you really need a graphical frontend then just use Kubuntu, install the server stuff, uninstall KDE and boom youre done!

  I believe what he meant is going without a display manager/desktop environment like GNOME/Openbox/KDE, not a physical monitor. ;p

    Yes, I will be going headless. I will only be using the monitor for setting up the software. Once I finished setting it up, I will put the monitor to other use.  


    I hope running kunbutu and installing the server application later on will make this old computer useful again.

      I recommend going headless. Servers don't need a display (head).
