I have installed X11 on my Pismo (384MB/400MHz) and it runs great. I don't know a lot about it yet but I have downloaded and installed Fink and have several apps now that run in X11. AbiWord, Xmms, Gnumeric, Gimp, Gtkgraph, etc. I downloaded it so that I could have these and other applications as well as because I am curious and like to mess around with things. I have always wanted to learn more about Linux/Unix and this is a great way to do so.
