i'd rather not install in the first place, which is what i'm trying now. On a new system, without X yet, i tried: # apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-radeon xserver-xorg-input-mouse xserver-xorg-input-kbd It installs a total of 86 packages (129MB), mostly libs, xserver-common, -xorg-core, fonts... If i try: # apt-get install xserver-xorg It'll go up to 117 packages (137MB), with ALL the i/o drivers as well... Not a big difference, but they're mostly useless packages and if you have an old pc with a small disk... ;) Having lspci installed, couldn't xerver-xorg install dummy packages, then run a script to find out which drivers it needs, and then install only those? Thanks for the tips.
