I'd guess that X would probably work, but in a limited capacity.  Let
me see...

I see that IIci is listed for netbsd as fully working, meaning scsi
and the console are supported.  Onboard and nubus ethernet is
supported.  ADB, sound, and so on.

If linux support is the same, then one could at least use the
framebuffer console version of X.  I don't know if NetBSD has an equiv
fb console X or not, and I don't have the time to look for the exact
status of linux support.

IIRC, YDL is PPC only.  I believe there is a packaging of Debian that
will work though.  There is also NetBSD.
