The only thing left (that I have been too lazy to fix) is the keyboard/mouse
event queues. It should be rather straightforward to do that. As for now;
the X server that is compilable from the X sources will run on both
VS2000 and VS3100 with monochrome graphics. Unfortunately, there are 
no keyboard or mouse support, so it will not be of much use, but it can
handle applications like xclock thrown at it :-)
