I am using X on a 318. It is very slow, mainly because 
hp-ux & X need more than 4 MB. You are continually swapping.

You can try to reuce your memory requirements, but it will still
be slow.

One of the 3rd pty memory manufacturers will add 4 MB to your
318. It is prob. not supported by HP, and might void your service
contract.

But, it remains that the 318 has a 330 cpu board in it, and their
mod involves a new backplane/connector board that allows you to
plus in thier memory expansion card. It was around $2k.

to answer your original question, I do not know of a way to do that.

Good Luck!
