I too am new to the elks project. As far as I can tell, your best bet for turning a 286 into an X terminal would be through the microwindows project(http://microwindows.censoft.com).
As for me, my interest in the elks project lies with networking older systems without turning to proprietary software. I have a number of older x86 machines I would very much like to set up as remote access terminals.
As far as my abilities to contribute to the project, I am currently in the process of teaching myself C, so hopefully in a few weeks I should be able to start debugging and/or writing code.
A question for whoever might be able to answer it: Can ELKS handle the microchannel architecture used in some IBM PS/2's? I have several PS/2 mod 55's (386sx16, 2mb ram, 60mb HDD and 1.44mb FDD) I'd like to set up using ELKS if that's possible.
Thanks, all.
