Did you install TC.tcz as advised?
Yes, sure. It works flawlessly. However I don't need all this stuff... like wm, programs etc. I'd like to only have  rdesktop which will start after x.

Thanks for any help

@vinikon I use the unit without window manager. Yes, you will need to install the Xorg package, but you do need the startx. You need to get the Xlibs.tz, the file is there.
In general, if you are missing a specific file, run the tce-ab utility, press p in the first menu, and then type the name of the file you're missing. You will get a list of packages that provide it.
Eventually, you should most probably install the following packages:
Xorg-7.7.tcz
Xprogs.tcz
Xlibs.tcz
These will install quite a few dependencies, and if you know what you're doing and you must free some space, you could fiddle with them, since not all of them may be actually required for your system.
Pay attention that the startx works differently than, say, in Ubuntu. Go over it carefully to see the way it works, and check out the last part of /home/tc/.profile file that runs this startx on startup.
