I've never compile x before and I'm a bit lost. Thanks for any tips.
Video drivers for x11-7.1(sources):
http://ftp.x.org/pub/X11R7.1/src/driver/
And look for:
xf86-video-ati-X11R7.1-6.6.0.tar.bz2
To replace Puppy's Xorg you may compile everything adding these options to the configure script:
<your arguments/options/parameters/whatever> --prefix=/usr/X11R7/ --bindir=/usr/X11R7/bin --libdir=/usr/X11R7/lib --includedir=/usr/X11R7/include --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var
Or take a look at the content of any .pc file at: /usr/X11R7/lib/pkgconfig
Video modules for my x11-7.2 dotpup are available at:

But beware I compiled Xorg without the glx extension, so you won't have 3D acceleration. I compiled Xorg while the nvidia drivers were installed and I forgot to enable a generic GLX extension. To solve it Xorg needs to be compiled specifying the Mesa's source path(I'm not sure).
Also I've tested some of the video modules and seems to work fine, but without hardware acceleration.
