If you can get it from another distro it should work without trouble...it uses standard X libs. After a quick check of the two versions i have on my machine (Suse9 and Slackware10), it seems to require only one lib not found in DSL, libXft.so.2.
The Slack version also uses libXaw.so.8 where DSL has 7.
In any case, it should be pretty simple to put into DSL.
If you can rip it from another distro, it would probably be /usr/X11R6/bin/xclock. Copy that into DSL somewhere (a bin directory if you have a writeable bin) and then do "ldd /path/to/xclock". If you get any "not found" messages, those are the libs you need to add to DSL. They will probably be in /usr/X11R6/lib. If you have a writeable lib directory in DSL, then copy the libs there. If not, then copy them somewhere else and start xclock this way:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/libs /path/to/xclock
If you have apt-get, you might be able to install it that way, but i'm not sure since it's part of X.
