Which other partitions are you missing? It might be helpful if at this
time you did (as the root user) "fdisk -l > partitions" to produce a
table of your partition info and sent us the content of the file
"partitions".

Have you identified the correct server for your card? Once you've done
that, it should be mainly a matter of running "dpkg -i " on the right
.deb files and then running xf86config.
You will need some specific information on your monitor. If you've got a
Super-VGA capable monitor, I recommend using the default svga timings in
the file created byxf86config until you've figured out which others your
monitor can handle, lest you fry it.
