X runs fine inside 8M, if you do not make the following errors:
1.) use 2.2 kernels (use 2.0 instead)
2.) use a late XFree (use older versions instead. If you have old
hardware, you don't need new drivers and a version of XFree from about
three years ago will do the job just fine.)
3.) use a recent distro (use an older distribution instead. Debian 1.x
comes to mind....)
