which version do you have? And to which version do you want to upgrade?
Normally, search for the available versions at
	http://packages.debian.org
or for 'xfree86-common' directly here
http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=xfree86-common&searchon=names&subword=1&case=insensitive&version=all&release=all

There are 3 Debian branches: stable, testing and unstable. The unstable
normally has the latest versions, but in the case of XFree86, version
4.3.0 is available only in the 'experimental' branch.

You need to search for a mirror if you want the 'experimental' branch,
you can use my /etc/apt/sources.list available at
	http://luca.pca.it/debian/sources.list

When you've inserted the rigth Debian mirror in the
/etc/apt/sources.list, then you need to type as root:
- - apt-get update
- - apt-get -t [Debian branch you want, example stable] install [package
name]
- - that's all :-)

> and yes...im a newbie :-)
No problem, we alwasy have something to learn :-)

Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
