Hello X folks,

	What is the minimum disk space required for a minimal X
implementation on the Sun? I have a request from someone here at NRL
to install X on their Suns. However, disk space is at a premium on
their network. The man's requirements are small: he simply wants
enough functionality to log in remotely to another machine that has
the full X package (no X programming involved) . Rather than build X 
on their Suns, I am considering merely moving the built binaries from 
our network to theirs. However, what else needs to go along with the 
binaries? I've come up with two items: 1) fonts, and 2) bitmaps. 
Is there anything else required, and of the available fonts, which
ones are absolutely required for xterm?

				Thank you for your support,
