I don't have a clue about the patch ...... but bear in mind that you have a 50 meg distro with no X11 headers, and no kernel sources. There is a kernel-sources.dsl package in the repository.
Also in the repository is the info file for the package- info-file link. telling you about it. When you install XFree86.dsl, you need to modify your ~/.xinitrc as described. An XFree86-config directory, containing various XF86Config files, is created in /home/DSL.One of these examples needs to be transfered to /etc/X11. Or you might use an existing XFree86-4 that you prepared earlier.
Then you would exit the window manager, and restart X. If something went wrong, and X crashed out, you could use MC to edit back to normal. Of course Frugal and live CDs can be restarted. I would always recommend the installation of dsl-dpkg.dsl and the gnu-utils.dsl before doing any serious work in any case.
Thats the package overview, at least, but I don't know how well you'll do with your particular card, not being familiar with it.
