I got the xorg-modular by:

scribe add xorg-modular from [WWW]
http://codex.sourcemage.org/testing/xorg-modular.tar.bz2

which is suggested under:

http://wiki.sourcemage.org/HOWTO-xorg

Is there a different (newer) grimoire, or just development spells
which hadn't reach xorg-modular yet, but that eventually will?  Any
ways, please let us know when there's a solution, and if we can remove
the link generated manually and re-cast something to try out, :)...

BTW, I guess the dispatch error messages are not to be worried about, are 
they?

Thanks a lot,

Javier.
