    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.
