You didn't provide much information, James.  I'm afraid that there's no
"one size fits all" answer to that question.  It depends on a lot of things.
Please provide the following information:

(1) The make and model of your computer
(2) The make and model of your video card
(3) The make and model of your monitor
(4) The type of monitor (CRT, LCD, etc.)
(5) The type of video connection used (digital, analog, etc.)
(6) The contents of /etc/X11/xorg.conf, if it exists
(7) The contents of /var/log/Xorg.0.log
(8) Which release of Debian you are running (Lenny, Squeeze, Sid, etc)
