The plan is for the box to be used in a regular fashion with X11 locally. The
x11vnc part is only for troubleshooting where occasionally necessary. Can
your suggestions hook into an existing desktop properly? (I normally just use
tightvnc for regular remote type uses.)
IIRC, there is a QT4 port underway but I don't think it is rushed. Not payig
close attention.
Good luck with your plans.
