I had opportunity to use both Xi Graphics and Metrolink Motifs. I tried Xi Graphics' version first and it seemed to have some bugs. After I tried Metrolink's one I found out that waht I considered to be a bug is a "feature" of Motif2.0. Anyways, metrolink motif seems to be more reliable product for development but Xi Graphics has more evolved runtime (mwm) configuration. Xi Graphics comes in Slackware's .tgz format - so you could use alien(5.3!) to convert it to .deb. This is not extremely good, since there would be no postrm (or prerm) scripts purging 2 extra lines in site.def file (added during installation). Metrolink comes in both rpm and plain .tar.gz archives (with installation script). This means that you could again use alien to convert rpm to deb. Hope this was of any help to you.
