On many PARISC Systems there is still no X-Windows
support or X-Windows has to access the graphics card
via the framebuffer device.

I wonder if there could be a chance to get the X-Server
from HPUX working under PALinux. Would the HPUX
compatiblity be good enough to have a chance whith
that?

Perhaps the suggestion sounds a bit unconventional but
for example many people running NETBSD on the
680x0 based HP-Workstations have made good experiences
with that. For example I am running a HP9000/425
und NETBSD 1.5 but because the HP300 port of
XFree is slow and buggy, I use the Xserver from
HPUX 9.
