I've tried tinyxserver a few years ago for the static Linux distribution Morpheus (now in hibernation). tinyxserver can run basic X applications, dwm and dmenu seemed to work (pre-Xft) iirc [0]. It also required patching to get it to work with musl. It had only framebuffer support (no 2D/video acceleration), which is a must for me. A static Xorg also worked, but could not load dynamic modules at the time (due to dlopen(3)). [0] - https://git.2f30.org/ports/file/tinyxserver/mkfile.html -- Kind regards, Hiltjo
