Are you really sure you want X 4.2?  It's not *that* much better...If
you really do want it, go to http://people.debian.org/~blade/woody/ and
see if Eduard has built ppc debs.  If not, get his source set and build
it locally, but be aware that X is a pig to build, and will take hours
of time and hundreds of megabytes of disk space.
