I'm running a terminal under VMware, I played with several memory configuration, 4, 8 & 32 Mb (no nfs swap). Under all configurations the kernel boots and X comes up, but under the 4 Mb configuration even though you get a login window your resources are so depleted the terminal is useless using X. The 8 Mb configuration is better, you can login and use application that don't utilize a large number of X resources. Don't try to run Star Office with this configuration because it will pretty much slow to a crawl, just moving the mouse over buttons is enough to drive you crazy. Using 32 Mb with no swap is very usable even with Star Office. The one thing to remember is that even though you are running apps on the server the terminal X server can and will deplete your memory depending on the number and complexity of the apps your running.
