I believe to get things started enable BR2_PACKAGE_XORG7, enable
BR2_PACKAGE_XSERVER_XORG_SERVER, keep the KDrive/Tiny-X server type,
and enable BR2_PACKAGE_XSERVER_XORG_SERVER_KDRIVE_EVDEV.

Then, you will have Xfbdev on your target, which is the X server. It
has a bunch of options that allows you to specify which evdev device to
use as a mouse and as a keyboard, if you have such input devices on
your system.

Best regards,

Thomas
