Boot from  debian rescue disk, or a mini-linux distribution, such as tomsrtbt
and mount your /root partition. Disable xdm startup with something like 
mv /etc/init.d/xdm /etc/init.d/xdm_startup, or whatever starts your X (kdm,....)

Then reboot to console and use XF86Setup to configure X properly, try 
startx -probeonly if not sure which settings will work.

After X is configured properly enable xdm 
mv /etc/init.d/xdm_startup  /etc/init.d/xdm
