And what video card/chipset do you have? I got the 1024x768 until I 
installed firmware-Linux-nonfree to get the firmware for my integrated 
Intel graphics. Perhaps you, too need some firmware. It's the best bet 
when other distros Just Work, as they include non-free drivers by 
default, and Debian doesn't.

We'd be happy to help. What videocard/chipset do you have? What
driver is currently in use? It really sounds like a simple driver
problem.

Is it possible to give us some more information? What is your system?
Can you post the output of:
lspci | grep VGA
and
xrandr
