Oh, I see.
I am not sure if oscar 5.1 provides the xorg and all the necessary X packages
in the included packages. If not, I think you need to do some manual works.
1. Managing your oscarimage directly
I do not recommend this method at all.
chroot to the oscarimage and then install all the necessary packages.
2. Create a golden client and push back the changes of the golden client to the
oscarimage.
Take one of your client nodes as a golden client and then install anything
you need.
After that, create the oscarimage from the golden client on your oscar
server.
This link may help you to manage the golden client and image.

BTW, can I ask why you want to use x-window on the client nodes?
