Would you have time for some hand holding guide along?

My network has about 10 386's with 8MB RAM running Netware/DOS
configuration.I would like to give them a minimalist X interface like
icewm? to get them on line on email and some browsing capabilities at
least. Right now I am able to provide text only email to them using
Pegasus/Mercury combination (www.pmail.com) but involves a hop from
internet to linux to netware and back for outside world emails.

We also have some 486's that I am able to get into X but only with
-allowMouseOpenFail option as the XF86_VGA server probe is some how not
able to detect mouse. Keyboard commands are a pain to teach and defeat
the very purpose of a GUI.

I am replying on the list as I think there would be some more people who
may be interested in this sort of hardware to be run.

TIA
