I found some mentions of Xserver in the hpcarm mailing list, it seems
that there is one available for the Jornadas. These are
mini-subnotebools with keyboards (like the emate, a little bit
smaller). do they have a touch-screen?
but it seems development has nearly stopped.
i just found proof that there is an xserver available:
NetBSD on my Jornada 710

I'm using NetBSD 1.6ZE on my Jornada 710, and It's incredibly great!!
I nfs mount the /usr/src and /usr/pkgsrc when I want to install new software.
And, with lite programs like dillo and sylpheed I can acess Internet
and do everything I want.
I highly recommend this machine!!
