There are no man pages installed for xvfb or Xvfb.  This is an extension of
X and should be a switch X -vfb.  I am running AIX 5.1.0-04 with X11.vfb
installed.  Again, this worked just fine before the reboot.  The reboot was
done just to ensure a clean slate before some maintenance.  Perhaps my
libpath is not set right.  Anyone else running in my environment willing to
share their libpath?  I'm reaching, but I'm desperate.

Try man xvfb or Xvfb. What platform are you running?
