If your hardware is supported, no need for those xserver-something
clients! All you need is xserver-xfree86.
According to the trusty apt-cache show, xserver-xfree86 is an X
server "completely redesigned for the 4.0 release, and features a
loadable module system in which required modules are loaded on demand
by a single server binary as opposed to the video card-specific X
servers of the 3.x release. The XFree86 server supports most modern
graphics hardware from most vendors, and supersedes most version 3.x
XFree86 X servers."
debian:~$ dpkg -L xserver-xfree86 | grep "driver"
