There were a number of compiler caused bugs in libXt that prevent it
from executing.

I can get gnome (and presumably kde) running happily on my B180, but
only if I use the debian testing release, which does have the fixed Xt
library.

The Xserver you should be using is the framebuffer one (and it *must* be
configured to match the STI framebuffer settings as output by the kernel
on boot up exactly).
