I'm afraid I'm going to have to stick with school and work, Greg. ;-)

ELKS don't pay the bills...not yet, at least.

A real X-Server would probably not be available for a 286 nowadays but ...

Not strictly an X-Server but it you want an X-display on a 286 you're
probably best with VNC from ORL (now AT&T IIRC). The X-server proper
runs on the main host and it uses the VNC client as a TCPIP connected
smart graphics card and mouse driver.

The VNC client is small enough to boot off a floppy complete with big
linux kernel, I've never heard of an ELKS version (How's the TCPIP code
doing nowadays?) but DOS & 'doze-32 versions do exist.
