First thing to check is that you've got the right video driver, although getting the wrong one would be far more likely to not work at all rather than do some foobar stuff with the picture.
What video chipset do you have? If you don't know, run lspci.And paste in what you've got in your /etc/X11/XFConfig-86 in your video driver section. It should correspond to what you really have.
Mine is:
Section "Device"
Identifier "NVidia"
Driver "nv"
EndSection
The screen section should also be set up properly. You might need to
look in your monitor handbook. How did you originally set up this config
then? What choices did you make?
You can run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 to be hand-held thro it. Adam
