Subject: [R] Validation of logistic models in R 2.12

Hi everyone,
I am trying to validate a logistic model built in R. Not my version of R is 2.12 and  I cannot install ROCR.
I have gone to a point where I have the predicted values using the code:

pred1 = predict(trainlogit1,testdata_1, type = "response")

How do I proceed from here? Is there another way in which I can plot lift charts?
My model output is:
Call:
glm(formula = Attrition_ind ~ Time.in.com + UV_LTIA_Base + as.factor(new_hire_ind) +
    as.factor(promotion_ind) + as.factor(Time.in.comp...5.years) +
    as.factor(Change.in.Job.Code) + Positioning_num + as.factor(Below.Guideline) +
    as.factor(Above.Guideline) + as.factor(Drop.in.Rating.in.2010) +
    as.factor(Increase.in.Rating.in.2010) + as.factor(job_band),
    family = binomial(link = "logit"), data = traindata_1)

Deviance Residuals:
    Min       1Q   Median       3Q      Max
-0.9604  -0.4888  -0.4221  -0.3514   2.9813

Could you please help? How can I understand  if my model is a good fit or not?
