    I would do this:
     apt-get install discover
     dpkg-reconfigure -plow xserver-xfree86

    Also use your internet access:
    http://lists.debian.org/search.html
    http://lists.debian.org/google.html
    These links will provide more info. I hear the Sarge installer
    auto-detects hardware. If you don't need to build a server install
    Sarge, it is the "testing" distribution.

    Good Luck
    Dan
