For the Mystique 220 card, you really need a more recent Xfree86 than
comes with Debian 1.3.1 (aka bo) - you have two choices:
1) upgrade to hamm (aka what will be Debian 2.0)
2) Install the XFree86 3.3.1 binaries yourself

I think method 1) is preferrable, but you can find (by searching the
mailing list archives for "mystique" from February) a description of
how to do 2) as well.

If you decide to do 1), be certain to look at
http://www.gate.net/~storm/FAQ/libc5-libc6-Mini-HOWTO.html first.

There's also a script that will do most of the upgrade for you somewhere -
I think it's in the Developer's corner section of the debian web site.
