Have you looked at the release notes? Perhaps:
http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/release-notes/ch-information.en.html#s-xorg
Release Notes for Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 ("etch"), Intel x86 - Issues to
be aware of for etch
5.3 XFree86 to X.Org transition
Also, /etc/X11/xorg.conf and $ man xorg.conf.
Post errors from /var/log/ for more help.

Ralph
