Drivers
The source URL above is the base URL. Appending *.bz2 or *.gz will download every input and video driver. You probably don't need every driver available. Just append the name of the driver tarball you want.
Alternately, if you chose to use subdirectories, the tarballs can be retrieved as follows. This will prevent multiple versions from being downloaded when multiple versions exist and downloading drivers you don't want. Get the list of drivers:
wget http://anduin.linuxfromscratch.org/sources/BLFS/svn/x/wget/driver-7.1.wget
Edit this list and comment out or completely remove the drivers you don't need. Now download the driver tarballs.
cd driver wget -B http://xorg.freedesktop.org/releases/individual/driver/ -i ../driver-7.1.wget
There are 71 drivers available for Linux; twenty-eight are input drivers and 43 are video drivers. You will need to know your hardware to select the approriate ones. But the name of the driver is generally pretty self-explanatory as to which hardware it supports. The 28 input drivers are:
