I download the driver Xorg-X11R6.7(the driver for my card) from intel webpage
and start the install, but i am stuck in step 2 it says:

2) Copy the necessary port driver files (*.so files) into X server's modules
directory. The default installation location is /usr/X11R6/lib/modules.
This location can vary so check your system for the proper path.
Once copying the required port drivers, specify them in "PortDrivers"
option in the Device section of config file. For more information,
look for option "PortDrivers" in the man page.

i didn't find "PortDrivers" in the man page, and i dont know wich are my necessary
port driver files (*.so files), this is the list of the .so files in the Driver.

ch7009.so
ch7017.so
fs454.so
libXiegdctl.so.1.0
libXportctl.so.1.0
ns2501.so
ns387.so
sdvo.so
sii164.so
th164.so
