I mean:

On X server machine do:

xhost ip_of_n900

On n900 do:

export DISPLAY=ip_of_xserver:0.0
su user
/etc/X11/XSession

the phone will most probably reboot, but before that you will see hildon-desktop on your server
Doesn't sound very useful.

I never tried that. It sounds promising. Maybe that's a way to get the Easy Debian desktop in a decent resolution to the Raspberry without having to clone the whole system.
