Usability of Client Interface on Server

I just did a fresh install of the latest beta over the past weekend. This includes only Ubuntu 10.04 Desktop, Bluecherry server and driver for 16 channel card, and proprietor drivers for onboard nvidia graphics.
When running the Linux client, the framerates are not at 30fps when viewing, (local system that is) but bouncing rom 20-28 fps on display. However it is recording at 30fps when viewing playback.
Overall though the entire interface is laggy, and slow, and not immediately responsive. This includes other programs within Ubuntu. However once the client is closed, the system reponsiveness is back and snappy. Is anyone else having this issue?
Dual core AMD system with 1GB Ram. 500GB WD Green Hard Drive

It sounds like the client isn't making use of OpenGL. This is a known issue on Linux systems and there isn't much you can do at the moment to improve it.
So, is the server supposed to run Headless? And if a client (customer) wants to view their DVR, it should always be through some sort of Windows/PC client software?
The server *can* run headless, which would probably be the best way to run the server if want to run it on lower end processor (Intel Atom for example).
You can run the client on the same computer that runs the server.
