What video card and monitor do you have? Are you absolutely sure
they're fully supported by Linux / X11? If so, go to a console
prompt, log in as "root" and re-run "setup" and select "X
configuration."
Select a higher resolution and color depth as your default. Then, you
can try using CTRL-ALT-KP+ and CTRL-ALT-KP- to adjust your video
settings.
