Introduction to the Xorg 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 forty-three are video drivers. You will need to know your hardware to select the approriate ones. The name of the driver is generally fairly self-explanatory as to which hardware it supports.

Dependencies

Required

Non-Multilib

Compile each driver: 

./configure ${XORG_CONFIG} --with-xorg-module-dir=${XORG_PREFIX}/lib/X11/modules &&
make

Install each driver: 

make install

Multilib

32Bit

Compile each driver: 

PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATH32}" CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" CXX="g++ ${BUILD32}" \
./configure ${XORG_CONFIG32} --with-xorg-module-dir=${XORG_PREFIX}/lib/X11/modules &&
make

Install each driver: 

make install

N32

Compile each driver: 

PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATHN32}" CC="gcc ${BUILDN32}" CXX="g++ ${BUILDN32}" \
./configure ${XORG_CONFIGN32} --libdir=/usr/lib32 \
    --with-xorg-module-dir=${XORG_PREFIX}/lib32/X11/modules &&
make

Install each driver: 

make install

64Bit

Compile each driver: 

PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATH64}" CC="gcc ${BUILD64}" CXX="g++ ${BUILD64}" \
./configure ${XORG_CONFIG64} --libdir=/usr/lib64 \
    --with-xorg-module-dir=${XORG_PREFIX}/lib64/X11/modules &&
make

Install each driver: 

make install

Next install xterm
