teTeX is obsolete and unmaintained for more than three years. TeXLive is 
the next standard TeX distribution for Unix

first from the family of BSDs  to have it as the default TeX 
distribution. It includes LateX, Pdflatex, Context, and every macro 
package ever written for TeX.

I am not sure I understand your last question. How can you do 
typesetting without displaying graphics?
TeXLive does not require X for processing but in order to see your 
document you need to use xdvi, ghostview or something along those lines. 
Obviously, I am not suggesting that you  install  X on a  DNS server  in 
order
to do typesetting. What I am suggesting is that I would expect that you 
use a desktop machine running X for typesetting.

Best,
