Suckless X almost there
Tinyx is a fork of Xorg 1.2.0 that aims to create the smallest, fully featured binary(~572 KB) of X. Here are the instructions on how to build it on tinycore, which uses tinyx by default. However, there is a discussion wheter the lack of drivers in Xvesa is beneficial, so I believe we should fork Tinyx and provide improved drivers from mainstream Xorg as patches.
What are some alternatives?
