Xorg is merely the name for the project managing the suite of software for running an X11R6 server. Xorg is not part of the kernel though. It is a separate suite of libraries and applications, and can be built and run on not only the Linux kernel, but also runs on BSD, Darwin, Windows, and other platforms as well.
