I just installed sarge on a box I've happily been running woody on for 5 years

to install woody X stuff on sarge or is there a better way?

Etch is very nearly the new stable and uses xorg instead of xfree86.
There is a package in Etch that seems to meet your needs (search for
"trident" in "testing" at http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages):
X.Org X server -- Trident display driver
This package provides the driver for Trident
Blade/Image/ProVidia/TGUI/9xxx video cards.
Perhaps you should go with Etch?
