BTW, I've noticed you've updated the wiki docs.  Thank you!

I aleady had everything except for XCalibrateExt, XTrap, Xss,
Xinerama, DMXExt, Xfont and FS.

I've re-bootstrapped from scratch just in case I had missed
something, but I still can't get DebriX to start due to missing
symbols:

 (==) Using config file: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf"
 LoadModule: dlopen failed - /usr/local/fdo/lib/xorg/modules/libextmod.so: undefined symbol: XvGetScreenIndexProc
 extmoddebrix: symbol lookup error: /usr/local/fdo/lib/xorg/modules/libfbdevhw.so: undefined symbol: LoaderGetOS

That's funny because I have those symbols:

 # nm ./hw/xorg/loader/libloader.a | grep LoaderGetOS
 00000010 T LoaderGetOS

...but not in the debrix binary.  Maybe I'm missing a
--whole-archive in the linker command line?
