HD Install :: Server on startup

ok, how do i go about getting Xheaders?

Is there a .DSL or is it way more complex (probably the latter i am guessing)

A quick google search reinforced my basic understanding that I didnt know what the hell is going on...

Could some kind person explain what xheaders are and where/how i can get/install them?

This is annoying...
I need help...

Headers are the same as includes. I couldn't give you an official definition, but headers are used by a compiler to build programs against other programs and libs. I assume this is to save having to include the same files with every program....if you build a program from source which uses X libraries (either links to those files or embeds them in the application) the X headers are needed during the compile process.
You can probably get what you need here:
http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages
The header packages typically have "-dev" at the end of the filename.

I hate to be a nagging moron, and you can be sure to note that this sounded stupid in my head BEFORE i wrote it as well...

But i am not sure what I need to do. I need to find XFree86's dev package?

well i can see a lot of "_drv" ending files, but no "-dev"
these files should be INSIDE the xfree package or something right?

When i do get them, do i just put them anywhere or is there something i need to do so that Xfree86 will incoroprate them into its processes?

thanks for your help so far, i feel that I am just missing one little vital thing and its really annoying.

ok, after a long stretch of failed attempts I have come to the conclusion that this is a lot harder than I had originally anticipated. Is it at all possible for someone else to compile this for me (and anyone else) using a better configured system?

all I need is an vesa version i suppose...

anyway, if somebody could do that it'd be GREAT (but I somehow doubt anyone will) any other advice is still welcome as I am a bit stuck...
