X isn't that hard - download the entire set of sources (I believe that
x.org has them, but I'm not 100% certain about that).  Extract them all
to the same directory and read the documentation that comes with it -
either INSTALL or README, IIRC.  I don't recall it being that hard.  It
just takes forever after you type 'make world'.  And do it on a
partition where you have several GB avail to run the compile.
