If you don't mind using a binary-only version, follow these instructions:
Go to www.d128.com and follow the link to Riva X-Servers.  Download the
glibc version.  Install the xserver-svga package, and configure it for Riva
128.  As root, run the command 'dpkg-divert /usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_SVGA'.
Finally, gunzip the XF86_SVGA.gz file you downloaded and copy it to
/usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_SVGA.  Voila!  Support for Riva TNT.
