Theoretically YES, but as i said you shud need XFree86 for an embedded device. Perhaps you may go for Qt/Embedded or the like, which is especially for embedded devices. > How do I reduce the size of the XFree86 environment? Remove the unnecessary files? You don't need to reduce anything .....perhaps only trouble ;-).... if you use Qt/Embedded. Hope this gives you a start, Jassi
