That's a good start.  Make sure you're using the right driver for your
graphics card (and not VESA for example).

Make a copy of your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, then run:
        sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
and choose the right driver for your card (avoid using VGA, VESA, and
FBDev drivers).


PLEASE:
        Make a copy of that file before doing anything just in case
        things didn't go right! (Run "cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf ~" to copy
        that file to your home directory.)

Ziyad.
