Just curious why would you want to not use x on a daily basis?

Hi,
Do you think it's possible to live without X,
replacing framebuffer for it, using packages
available for arch? I imagine something like
DirectFB or similar, using it when text is
not enough. I think I could do with a browser
and a pdf viewer, but I wasn't able to find
a direction to follow to get that. Has any of
you tried it already?

You can use fbgs from fbida package to see pdf's, and a browser like
w3m-graphics or links-g.
And yes, it is possible.
