Hmm, I notice an xqt and xqt2 in the OE dev tree. How hard would it be
to have Opie using that?
Xqt is designed to allow you to run X applications in a QPE (Opie)
environment, not run Opie in an X environment. However, to that end it may
help you to run some of the X11 applications that you currently miss under
Opie.
BTW, there is a way to have Opie and X11 run in parallel (if you have
enough storage space available). Both environments can be started in
different virtual terminal sessions. If both are up then it is a matter
of applying "chvt x" to switch between both worlds. There was even an
Opie plugin whih let you witch between the terminals though I forgot its
name. The disadvantage: Took lots of resources, especially heap mem so
you need swap space on a fast persistent storage.
I used to play around with X/Qt under OZ some while ago. I found it hard
to use due to the same ressoure constrain issues and because it suffered
from a slow performance. Never tried it under Angstrom though so I
believe things could have improved.
At least both approaches need to be supported by some scripting to ease
life for the average user and to improve session handling. opie-sh could
be a good platform to provide this.
