use the force, poet: http://linuxbbq.org/wiki/index.php?title=Disznosajt

as you can see there, Disznosajt is fridged, and replaced with Virgin as the RYO base release. however, Disznosajt had X and Virgin does not. obviously this is to provide people with an even more bare-bones RYO option.
if you do want X, there are several base releases to choose from. it all depends on which WM you want.
- LXDE/Openbox: Trollinger > http://linuxbbq.org/wiki/index.php?title=Trollinger
- XFCE: Kielbasa > http://linuxbbq.org/wiki/index.php?title=Kielbasa
- i3: Threesome > http://linuxbbq.org/wiki/index.php?title=Threesome
- GNOME: Bauchspeck > http://linuxbbq.org/wiki/index.php?title=Bauchspeck
- MATE: Paardenrookvlees > http://linuxbbq.org/wiki/index.php?titl ... nrookvlees

maybe i forgot one. but enough to choose from i think!

As Rhowaldt said, the 'real' X-base is now Trollinger (filed as LXDE)

http://linuxbbq.org/releases/LXDE

The barebones editions Boner/Virgin are generally not 'recommended', except to those who want exactly something like this.

in fact, none of the BBQ releases are recommended. they are simply provided. you can do whatever the fuck you want with them as long as you don't bother us too much :)
