I use Arch Linux for this kind of stuff, and just ssh into my VMs 
instead of running X on them. I especially like Arch for this 
because it doesn't come with loads of bloat (for this setting) 
installed by default, yet is comfortable to use – at least if 
you are somewhat familiar with Linux already.
