What is dselect ? ;-) You mean you use something other than "apt"? Weird. I think you can have Xfree86 V4 installed, and just install the 3.3.6 SVGA driver as an option to V4. Haven't done it, but I'm sure "apt-cache search XFree86" was hinting at that (and I've seen it on Redhat as well to cope with cards v4 doesn't support), perhaps I didn't make myself clear. > Debconf then sorted out the XF86Config file to match.

It is a lot more stable than building your own Debian variant in my limited experience. I certainly found that XFree86 dependencies are an issue for some applications, probably not that surprising really.
