 Thanks for your help.

Take a look at the manual page for XF86Config:

   Visual visual-name
   This  optional  entry  sets  the  default root
   visual type.  This may also be specified  from
   the command line (see Xserver(1)).  The visual
   types  available  for  8bpp  X   servers   are
   (default is PseudoColor):

StaticGray
GrayScale
StaticColor
PseudoColor
TrueColor
 
The correct location is the Screen section in the /etc/X11/XF86Config
file.

Be sure to change the correct Screeen section, e.g. when using an
accelerated Server use the Section with the Driver accel entry.

How to change the default X visual?

I've only got a grey scale monitor, and would like to change the default X
visual of my Debian box to GrayScale. How do I do that? 

Thanks for your help.
