Looks like you've got X configured for a color depth your vidcard won't support. Try running
dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86
and choose a lower depth, like 16, and see if that works.
I installed the Debian with kernel 2.6.9 on my new Dell Dimension 3000, everything was fine except I cannot the X windows started. Please help me out!!!

Thanks for your help.
After I changed it to 16, I was able to get X started. However, the screen looks bad because it only gave me 640x480 and no other choices. Please help me with that.
furthermore, in windows, it works fine for depth 24.
Take a look at this page on Intel's web site, about your chipset:
http://support.intel.com/support/gra.../CS-010512.htm
It suggests checking the amount of memory allocated to your video card in the BIOS.
Take a look at this thread at KernelTrap.org:
http://kerneltrap.org/node/view/1896
It suggests that you need to use the "intel-agp" module rather than the normal "agpgart" module.
Great help, man.
After I changed the memory setting in the BIOS, it works great. Thank you.
