You probably don't have a geode.

You can limit the drivers to build by editing a modules file. 
Make a copy of the modulesets/my.modules
        $> cp modulesets/my.modules modulesets/dew.modules
Now edit the 'my-drivers' meta module in modulesets/dew.modules. I have
truncated all the drivers _I_ don't need from my.modules because at that
time the xorg.modules file was next to it. I will fix that immediately.
Depending on what drivers you need, you can simply delete entries and
fill in the drivers you need. 

Now you can specify that new moduleset on the command-line
        $> x-jhbuild -m dew build
or create a special configuration file which uses that modules file.

Besides limiting the drivers, the my.modules file adds some fonts and
apps.
