[Xorg-driver-geode] Cannot compile Geode Driver on PCLinuxOS 2008

I am trying to build a rather small internet device to hook to my HDTV for
casual browsing and email. I got a alix 3d3 geode based board from
pcengines.ch.

I installed PCLinuxOS as this is a rather weak hardware based on Geode LX
running at 500MHz.

PCLinuxOS does not come with geode xorg server and is currently using fbdev
driver.

I downloaded the AMDGeode driver source from here
http://www.x.org/wiki/AMDGeodeDriver

however when I try to ./configure it, I get errors and I cannot seem to find
the required packages in the PCLinuxOS repository. I have tried to install
other distributions, however the hardware is too weak to reliably even
complete installs completely.

Error below:
checking for XORG... configure: error: Package requirements (xorg-server
xproto fontsproto ) were not met:

No package 'xorg-server' found
No package 'xproto' found
No package 'fontsproto' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables XORG_CFLAGS
and XORG_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.
