I don't know about your Debian questions, but the GeForce4 cards
had native support starting in XFree86 4.3 which was released about a
year ago. XFree86 4.3, or the 4.4 pre-release snapshots, which
have improved support for NVIDIA cards are available from
ftp.xfree86.org.
NVIDIA also has proprietary binary drivers which will work with
your current XFree86 version. The latest self-installing driver
is available at:
http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-5328/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-5328-pkg1.run
which you can download from the commandline with an app like "wget".
If you install NVIDIA's binary drivers you definitely want to read
NVIDIA's readme:
ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-5328/README
