by apt-get first and then 'apt-get install
x-window-system' but i think while setting up
for my laptop monitor( i have compaq presario R3000) i
think, i fucked up, when i
rebooted i just flickering screen. i think i entered
wrong parameters for my monitor
which is of course LCD. so i again uninstalled x
window by 'apt-get remove x-window-system' and again
rebooted, but now while booting it says starting xdm
and again there is flickering screen. so pleae help
me.

If my guess is correct, everything is allright except that you need to
configure your X with proper driver. To do this you need to tell us
whether you are using xorg or xfree86. Assuming that you are using xorg
packages do
dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
if you are using xfree86, then I believe the command is
dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86
