No. not all headers or internal libraries required for building a
driver are installed. You need things that are setup only in a first
full build.

None that I'm currently aware of. There is some support to build a
driver SDK in XFree86 4.x, but it's not currently built and I'm not
sure if it's actually working. Most of the X developpers have access
to fast hardware and thus this is an area in which the intersest has
been low.
