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

-        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.

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