The web site for X-servers is:
http://www.xfree.org
Generally, each distribution includes all x-servers. I never tried to
download one from
the web, I always found CDs with complete distris.
I just looked at the debian site (debian.org) and found the packages there,
under:
http://www.debian.org/Packages/stable/x11/ . you should need the
xfree86-common
package , the correct xserver for your graphic card, xterm and probably a
lot other
stuff... Can't you get a CD rather? it contains all packages and an
installation program
that will help you for the setup.
