Thanks for your reply.
My old laptop has a Neogeo 128XD chip which I find it's supported
by xfree86 4.x, and it has a CPU of pity pentium mmx 300, ram of
160M, I am afraid it has not the capacity to run the lastest version
of xfree86 acceptably, because my graphic card does not support
AGP. Could you give me an advice that which version of xfree86
should I install?

It may be that XFree86 3.3.6 isn't expected to compile
with 2.6 kernels. We officially dropped support for XFree86
3.x versions some number of years ago and I know we did have
to add some 2.6 kernel specific stuff to the XFree86 4.x
servers. XFree86 3.x isn't necessarily any lighter than
XFree86 4.x servers. The only reason for considering a
3.x server would be for old graphics adaptors which aren't
well-supported in 4.x. Which graphics adaptor do you have?
If it's well-supported in 4.x you're better off with 4.x.
