according to http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/xorg-config.xml:
You could install the xorg-x11 metapackage instead of the more lightweight
xorg-server. Functionally, xorg-x11 and xorg-server are the same.
However, xorg-x11brings in many more packages that you probably don't need,
such as a huge assortment of fonts in many different languages. They're not
necessary for a working desktop.
