Hey, I've got ferrum working with xvfb. Are you interested to have ferrum automatically handle Xvfb opening and choosing a display?

Like when you pass headless: :xfb

I could PR on this

Are you using it in headful mode to work with extensions in xvfb?

Yeah, currently with headless: false.
I was able to pass the DISPLAY=:99 by patching your Process#start method a bit

Sounds good! Maybe someone needs it especially for extensions! Thank you!

For extensions, I 've run ferrum, without xvfb so I could navigate the browser. Put a binding pry so It waits.

Also before had to configure the user-data-dir.

While it inside the debugger, I went to the main window, and configured extension to be available in incognito.

Closed, saved the user-data-dir, then I use it as a base for whenever I need. just cp it to a /tmp dir and set user-data-dir to the tmp dir
