Assuming that you are using a Nubus video card and either the SLOTMAN
kernel or the video-lkm, the answer is "yes". How, depeneds on your window
manager.

Yes, well actually compiled for Amiga, but they work fine on mac68k. The
URL is:
ftp://ftp.uni-regensburg.de/pub/NetBSD-Amiga/contrib/X11/
I am using fvwm-1.24l from those archives and it works fine. Also, be sure
to grab the libXpm file from there. I also believe that the Xpm library
and fvwm2 have been done up as packages.
