Add the following to /etc/apt/sources.list:
deb http://www.debian.org/~vincent xfree-update main
This location has XFree 3.3.6 for slink.

This release doesn't work in hi-res modes with my graphics card (VGA mode in 16 colors is impossible!!). I have heard that XFree86 3.3.4 or higher supports the Trio3D/2X chipset. So, I went to the XFree86 web page, but XFree86 3.3.6 is only in .tgz format. If I install this, the installation will skip the Debian installation database!!
