Well, nothing on our (CentOS) side claims that X was working.
Technically a lot of pkgs were built, but all images are minimal.
If you're intestested into armhfp/aarch64, can you consider subscribing
to the dedicated arm-dev list
(https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/arm-dev) and start a thread
there ?

I don't remember if someone already tried to have X working on such
armhfp boards (with CentOS pkgs that is)
