It shouldn't matter whether it's X or otherwise, you just plug the 
projector into your monitor port. All you'll need to do is make sure the 
projector can handle the resolution you're running at (most will do up 
to 1024x768) and you should be fine.

(Oh, and if it's a laptop computer, make sure you know the button 
combination to switch output from the internal screen to the monitor 
port...while it's quite amuzing watching people trying to figure it out, 
it's probably not as much fun for the one trying to present it :) )
