Xorg Installation

[John Baab <john.baab@gmail.com>]

I have managed to install xorg via ubuntu debs.  I had to download and
install these packages:

xbase-clients_6.8.2-10_amd64.deb
libdmx1_6.8.2-10_amd64.deb        xfonts-100dpi_6.8.2-10_all.deb
libfs6_6.8.2-10_amd64.deb         xfonts-75dpi_6.8.2-10_all.deb
libgcc1_4.0-0pre10_amd64.deb      xfonts-base_6.8.2-10_all.deb
libx11-6_6.8.2-10_amd64.deb       xfonts-scalable_6.8.2-10_all.deb
libxau6_6.8.2-10_amd64.deb        xlibmesa-dri_6.8.2-10_amd64.deb
libxaw8_6.8.2-10_amd64.deb        xlibmesa-gl_6.8.2-10_amd64.deb
libxdmcp6_6.8.2-10_amd64.deb      xlibmesa-glu_6.8.2-10_amd64.deb
libxinerama1_6.8.2-10_amd64.deb
libxkbfile1_6.8.2-10_amd64.deb    xorg-common_6.8.2-10_all.deb
libxkbui1_6.8.2-10_amd64.deb      xserver-common_6.8.2-10_amd64.deb
libxss1_6.8.2-10_amd64.deb        xserver-xorg_6.8.2-10_amd64.deb
libxxf86dga1_6.8.2-10_amd64.deb   xutils_6.8.2-10_amd64.deb
libxxf86misc1_6.8.2-10_amd64.deb  xvfb_6.8.2-10_amd64.deb
libxxf86vm1_6.8.2-10_amd64.deb    x-window-system-core_6.8.2-10_amd64.deb

Now, I was wondering if using these ubuntu debs is a good idea or if I
should attempt to compile the xorg source myself.  Is it recomended to
stick with xfree86 from an apt source so that none of the dependencies
are broken, or have people had good luck using xorg?
