The terminal on my improvised night-stand is an old AcerNote Light
(350PCX) running sid, current as of whenever I last updated it.  My
laptop source is family getting rid of older laptops.  It runs Opie
(compiled from source), a graphical environment that does not use X that
is intended for PDAs, without much trouble, but I remember not being
able to get it to work properly with X4 so I had continued with
Potato's X3.6 (until I removed X).

I've been using a null modem serial cable or a wireless link, depending
upon where the laptop is located.
