Xfree86 3.3.3 or 3.3.4 or 3.3.5



I am installing slink from cd's.  I so far have installed the base
system and have PPP working.  I need to get X setup, but the 3.3.2
version on the CD's does not have support for my Matrox G200 AGP card,
I know 3.3.4 does (maybe 3.3.3 too).  How can I get this from the
netgod site (I don't have a graphical browser yet...), I'd like to do
this via dselect with apt, but ONLY to get the updated X packages.  I
will still install most every else from CD first, then upgrade one
package at a time when needed.  

Can I mix the 3.3.2 X packages on the CD with an X server from 3.3.3 or
3.3.4 or do I need an all 3.3.3 or 3.3.4 system?  How do I set up
deselect/apt to see the available 3.3.3 or 3.3.4 x packages from the
debian server?  I need the Slink version of these packages (glibc2.0
not 2.1).

Thanks for any help anyone can give me here.  This is the first time I
will attempt installing packages direct from the net (as opposed to
downloading a single package via ftp and just dpkg -i it.)
