Installing headless chrome without sudo

I am using Dreamhost VPS which doesn't provide sudo capability . Dreamhost runs on Ubuntu. My final goal is to be able to use Ruby to run headless web browser. I picked Watir gem and it requires chromedriver. I installed chromedriver into my home directory ~/chrome/, and added it to my $PATH. I get an error /home/user/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.3.0/gems/selenium-webdriver-3.141.0/lib/selenium/webdriver/remote/response.rb:69:in `assert_ok': unknown error: Chrome failed to start: exited abnormally (Selenium::WebDriver::Error::UnknownError) It seems I need to install Xvfb and all guides suggest sudo apt-get install, which I can't do. Even if I install Xvfb as standalone, it lacks a lot of extra stuff from X11: [myServer]$ Xvfb :1 -screen 0 1024x768x24 (WW) Could not open RGB file "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb.txt"; will use built-in copy. _XSERVTransSocketOpenCOTSServer: Unable to open socket for inet6 _XSERVTransOpen: transport open failed for inet6/ps554048:1 _XSERVTransMakeAllCOTSServerListeners: failed to open listener for inet6 error opening security policy file /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xserver/SecurityPolicy Could not init font path element /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/, removing from list!

Fatal server error: could not open default font 'fixed' **Temporary solution** is to get instance on Amazon Web Services which allows 100% sudo and install all the necessary packages
