Soekris users consider the lack of VGA to be a feature, since they
make the systems smaller and less power hungry.  If you want to run X
stuff, my advice would be to run a X server on your laptop to make it
act like an X terminal, and run the applications on the Soekris over
the network.  That's how X was designed to be used.  Works great.

If you really really want to run X on your Soekris, you could plug in
a mini-PCI video card, which I see you can get for about $45, but I'd
recommend not running an X server process on your server hardware.

R's,
