installing drivers for Graphics cards that do not exist

I have a remote C8000 that does not have a graphics card but my local workstation that i want to run the application on has one but the display does not work.
To get my display to work can i install drivers onto the remote C8000 even though it does not have a graphics card so that the display can function on my local workstation.

Shalom,

If you have xfs running on the remote system and use X windows to connect that is all you need to do. Graphics drivers are not required at the other end.

How to connect:

ssh -X hostname application
or
ssh -Y hostname application
or
X windows client.

Thank you for the information. I have passed this onto the users as i do not have access to the system.

Thanks
