It does look intresting, but using x-apps via Xvnc on a local machine
that is only a 206mhz risc doesnt sound especially fast to me,
the zaurus only has a small memory bandwidth, this way, every frame you
view will be shunted about in memory in some way about 3 times or so
more than the standard zaurus fbdev stuff with qtopia/qpe/gpe.
but that said, i dont use debian because of x :-)
i think i might untar the arm debian base onto an sd card and play with
it in chroot
