I doesnt understand why you didnt manage to get X running on Ubuntu touch:

I guess Xmer is Xmir and you failed somehow.
I always thought X should always be possible at least through vnc?

If i consider your skillset

and look at Orrery wiki and source code (looks nice) and your financial position i wonder how can they make you not succeed? dirty details please!

Cant you just pay yourself(*) to get "easy debian" working on Ubuntu touch? Assuming you can still live with Ubuntu touch on Nexus5 [and considering software>hardware in gnu/linux]

(*) or someone else
