I finally got it to work! :-D It IS really nice to look at. I found a
french guide (https://vogelweith.homeftp.net/Linux/e17.php) which was a
bit more thorough than the others I'd found, and it helped me through it
all. I guess my problem was that I needed to apt-get a million extra
dependecies... more or less ;-) Now I'm trying to configure Entrance
which, according to the guide, should make it look nicer. There's just
one problem, I have to edit a file, which looks like it has changed
since the guide was written. The guide writes:
-------------
Ensuite, il faut faire quelques modifications pour que le serveur X soit
lancé correctement par Entrance. Je n’ai pas encore trouvé de moyen très
propre de faire ces modifs : pour l’instant il faut modifier le code
source. Notons qu’Entrance marche très bien sans ces modifs mais il
lance X sans l’option "-nolisten tcp" et sans l’option "-dpi 100".
Pour corriger ceci et obtenir ainsi un serveur X configuré comme
lorsqu’on le lance avec *startx*, il faut modifier la variable
*X_SERVER* dans le fichier /cvs/e17/apps/entrance/src/daemon/Entranced.h
pour quelle ressemble à ceci :
#define X_SERVER "/usr/bin/X11/X -quiet -dpi 100 -nolisten tcp"
-------------
You must now make some changes so that the X server starts correctly
when using Entrance. I still did not find any clean way to make these
modifications. For the moment I suggest to edit the source code. Note
that Entrance works fine without these modifications, but it launches X
without the "-nolisten tcp" and "-dpi 100" options.
To correct this, just edit the *X_SERVER* variable in the following file
: /cvs/e17/apps/entrance/src/daemon/Entranced.h as follow :
#define X_SERVER "/usr/bin/X11/X -quiet -dpi 100 -nolisten tcp"
-------------
But when I open my Entranced.h file I can't figure out which line to
change, it looks to me like there are two possibilities:
#define DEFAULT_X_SERVER X_BINARIES "/X -quiet -nolisten tcp"
ENTRANCE_VT_ARG
and
//#define X_SERVER "/usr/X11R6/bin/Xnest -full"
Here's the entire file:

Which one of the two should I rewrite?
And THANKS for everyone that've helped me on this mailing-list, it's
really very nice of you :-)
