I'm trying to run RCPTT tests in TeamCity with a Linux agent and I'm currently getting an error org.eclipse.swt.SWTError: No more handles [gtk_init_check() failed].

I think this is because Eclipse needs to be run using Xvfb. How do I write my pom.xml in such a way that the application that RCPTT spawns will run using Xvfb, for example xvfb-run /path/to/Eclipse.

My pom.xml looks something like this...

    <build>
        <plugins>
            <plugin>
                <artifactId>maven-antrun-plugin</artifactId>

                                <echo message="Ending (startup) xvfb ..." />
                                <exec executable="pkill">
                                    <arg value="Xvfb" />
