    <para>
      The <application>Xorg Drivers</application> page contains the
      instructions for building Xorg drivers that are necessary in order
      for Xorg Server to take the advantage of the hardware that it is
      running on. At least one input and one video driver is required
      for Xorg Server to start.

      <para>
        If you are unsure which video hardware you have, you can use
        <command>lspci</command> from <xref linkend="pciutils"/>
        to find out which video hardware you have and then look at
        the descriptions of the packages in order to find out
        which driver you need.
