Subject: X.org on Raspberry Pi 5

I feel like this is a very stupid question, but I have not found
anything more useful after a lot of Googling.

I have a Pi 5 Compute Module, in the official IO shield. So, a tiny
desktop computer with a Wifi antenna.  It has a 32GB onboard eMMC
"SSD" and an nVME slot.

I have bought a cheap used 128GB nVME SSD for the slot, and after many
missteps and mistakes, including mistakenly overwriting the eMMC with
Alpine, I have Alpine 3.21 booting and running from the nVME SSD in
"sys" mode. It can only see my 2.4GHz WLAN not the faster 5GHz wifi
that works fine in Pi OS, but that's a detail.

What is puzzling me is that I've installed Xfce using the
`setup-desktop` script but it won't launch. X11 won't start.

Does X.org work on Alpine on a Pi 5?
