I am using AccelX 4.1 with no problems. My suggestion would be to install
Xfee86 stuff from Debian packages, including at least one server ( vga16
is a good choice ). After that, install AccelX - skip minimal install,
select custom and install ONLY server, X11 compatibility package and fonts.
NOTHING MORE! Edit /etc/X11/Xserver and substitute vga16 entry with
/usr/X11R6/bin/Xaccel. You should also put the following entry into
/etc/X11/xdm/Xservers file:

:0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X


That's it.
