While it looks like you'd like to install a Mandrake flavor of Linux,
you've sent you request to a Debian mailing-list. Debian and Mandrake
are both (independant) distributions of Linux.
We cannot help you with any Mandrake-related problems, but I can tell
you that in the latest stable Debian release, XFree86-3.3.2 is still
present. Please see http://www.debian.org for more information.
