So it's been nearly a year since I used void, since I used Linux at all. Naturally, I forgot a lot of stuff.
The philosophy here is to do as minimal an install as possible and build
The system up from there.
After the initial install, which an ncurses based process, I had to figure out what graphic driver to use. I know I have an AMD graphics card installed, so I did:

dmesg | grep amd

I get:
[drm] amdgpu kernel modsetting enabled

 I therefore know which driver to install for my graphics card, so I go:

# xbps-install -S xorg-minimal xorg-fonts xterm twm xclock xfree86-video-amdgpu

I also installed git, vim, mlocate, i3-gaps, feh, xrandr, arandr, xprop, xrv-tunicode, base-devel, irssi, gimp, cmus, rtorrent



# xbps-install -S git, vim, mlocate, i3-gaps, feh, xrandr, arandr, xprop, xrv-tunicode base-devel irssi gimp, cmus, rtorrent.
 
Briefly what I installed was:

Package	Function
xorg-minimal	Contains the Xorg server, input drivers and a few additional utilities.
xorg-fonts	Basic font files and font encoding utilities
xterm	Terminal emulator
twm	Basic window manager for Xorg
xclock	Clock application for twm
xfree86-video-amdgpu	AMD video driver
git	Source code cotrol
vim	Powerful text based editor
mlocate	location db and lookup
i3-gaps	Fork of i3 tiling window manager thatyallows for gaps in between windows and workspaces
feh	Simple image viewer
xprop	Utility for displaying window and font properties in an X server.
xrandr	Used to set the size, orientation and/or reflection of the outputs for a screen. It can aslo set the screen size.
arandr	A visual front end for xrandr
xrvt-tunicode	Another terminal emulator
base-devel	Gnu compiler and associated development utilities
irssi	IRC chat client
gimp	Image manipulation program
cmus	Text based music player
rtorrent	Text based bittorrent client

Now I am good to go, I just need to configure X Server, and the i3 window manager.
