XF86 configuration

 Hi,
      I am new to linux and to debian 2.2r2, currently struggling to 
configure Xf86.
  Questions :
  
    1. My Video card is NVIDIA Riva TNT2 model 64.  In the installation 
process
  "anxious" failed to identify the video card.  However after installation, 
while I
  am trying to configure xf86, the list of video cards provided contains one 
card
  saying NVIDIA Riva  and chipset TNT2.  Am I making the correct choice ? 
  how come anxious can't find it then ?
  
   2. I have a MS PS/2 mouse with a two button and a little scroll wheel in 
the
  middle. I selected PS/2 mouse.  But I am only guessing when it asks about
  the specific device for the mouse. The default is /dev/mouse, I tried that, 
and
  it gave an error saying "mouse not found".  Next time I tried /dev/tty0 
then also
  mouse wasn't identified. 
  
     Please help. Thanks.
