If you're building for current Linux (2.6 or newer) you want
xf86-input-evdev.  The -keyboard & -mouse drivers are for non-evdev
OS'es (BSD, Solaris, etc.).

That's a random mix of obsolete & current video drivers - it's impossible to
have a system that supports all of them (sunffb is a SPARC graphics driver,
intel graphics only run with Intel CPU's).
