- I don't know of any "X Kernel" yet for the DNx5xx (Domain/OS m68k) or
- hp9000s300 (HP-UX m68k) workstations. This excellent idea was discussed
- during last years ADUS conference, and again during the recent InterWorks
- conference.

- For the moment, I'd suggest you setup your workstations in a minimal
- configuration - just enough loaded on the root disk to get the kernel
- and TCP/IP going. Then use the "-query <hostname>" option available
- on the Domain/OS and HP-UX Xservers to query a workstation that has
- a vuelogin or xdm daemon providing login services.
