# Running X11
|
|
* You can run a non-accelerated X11 if you build the kernel with
|
|
`CONFIG_DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION=y`
|
|
* After booting that kernel install the relevant xserver fbdev (under debian)
|
|
`sudo apt install xserver-xorg-video-fbdev`
|
|
* Then you can try starting X
|
|
`startx`
|
|
* If you have problems look for error messages in the Xserver log
|
|
`less /var/log/Xorg.0.log`
|
|
* Assuming you get X starting up then will need to set up a window manager - as per your distribution e.g. see this Debian [GUI system](https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-reference/ch07.en.html)
|
|
* I installed the very light keyboard based fluxbox
|
|
`apt install fluxbox`
|
|
* To get a simple graphical login screen
|
|
`apt install xdm`
|
|
* I install the nice X terminal **konsole**
|
|
`apt install konsole`
|
|
* For a web browser install firefox as Chrome requires special kernel paging support (not available at this time)
|
|
`sudo apt install firefox-esr`
|
|
