    498         There are actually two ways of installing this firmware. BLFS, in the
    499         'Kernel Configuration for additional firmware' section part of the
    500         <xref linkend="xorg-ati-driver"/> section gives an example of
     498        There are actually two ways of installing this firmware. One is
    501499        compiling the firmware into the kernel - that is slightly faster to
    502500        load, but uses more kernel memory. Here we will use the alternative
     
    580578        As written above at the end of the section on 'Firmware for ATI video
    581579        chips', loading large blobs from /lib/firmware can take a noticeable
    582         time during which the screen will be blank. On a slow machine you might
    583         wish to refer to the 'Kernel Configuration for additional firmware'
    584         part of <xref linkend="xorg-amdgpu-driver"/> and compile all the
     580        time during which the screen will be blank. On a slow machine you
     581        might wish and compile all the
    585582        required modules into the kernel to reduce this time, at the cost of
    586583        using more kernel memory.

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

     23      instructions for building Xorg input drivers that are necessary in
     24      order for Xorg Server to respond user inputs.

    32       On machines using KMS, the modesetting driver is provided by
    33       <application>xorg-server</application> and can be used instead of the
    34       video driver for the specific hardware, but with reduced performance.
    35       It can also be used (without hardware acceleration) in virtual machines
    36       running under <application>qemu</application>.

    42         <command>lspci</command> from <xref linkend="pciutils"/>
    43         to find out which video hardware you have and then look at
    44         the descriptions of the packages in order to find out
    45         which driver you need.

    51         In addition to the drivers listed below, there are several other
