Xorg X server - core server The Xorg X server is an X server for several architectures and operating systems, which is derived from the XFree86 4.x series of X servers. The Xorg server supports most modern graphics hardware from most vendors, and supersedes all XFree86 X servers. The Xorg server either needs fonts installed on the local host, or needs to know of a remote hosts that provides font services (with xfs, for instance). The former means that fonts packages are mandatory. The latter means that font packages may be gratuitous. To err on the side of caution, install at least the xfonts-base, xfonts-100dpi or xfonts-75dpi, and xfonts-scalable packages.
