xserver-s3 install problem



I just installed debian 2.0 on my machine but can't setup X to work 
properly. when I run dselect for the first time I mainly installed 
the packages that dselect proposed. some of them didn't install, two of 
which were the xserver-s3 and xserver-vga16 packages. since I would 
like to use the xserver-s3 (i have an asus video magic s3v864 video 
card), i tried to install xserver_s3_3.3.2.2-3.deb via dpkg. this gives 
me the following output:

(reading database ... etc.
unpacking xserver-s3 (from xserver_s3_3.3.2.2-3.deb)
expr: syntax error
expr: syntax error
expr: syntax error
expr: syntax error
expr: syntax error
....

and so on until I stop the process with ctrl-c.
any ideas what's wrong?
