This is simply because no server daemons are installed and activated by
default. You need to download the telnet-server package, enable this
service in /etc/inetd.conf and must start inetd (at bootup or later).

I don't understand. You want to start a X11 application on a remote
machine and display let it display on the Falcon or the other way?

It's mostly the same as under every other Unix. Just installing,
configuring and running the services you want.
