X -Windows on G4 PowerBook

[C.Bryan Daniels <cbdaniels@ameritech.net>]

In order to get X windows up on my G4 with a Radeon 7500 video card, I 
need to install a newer XFree86--either Michel Daenzer's DRI package of 
else Branden's 4.2 package. These packages are not part of the regular 
Debian distributions.  I continue to be stumped on how to do this. I 
have not found an elegant way to do this by updating my
apt/sources.list file, so I am getting ready to download all the 
necessary files into a local directory and then updating 
/apt/sources.list  with an entry:

	deb file:/<dir> debs/

There must be a better way. . .

Any suggestions would be appreciated. If this question has already been 
answered, a pointer to that answer would be equally appreciated.

Thanks,
