Sounds like you could be trying to run X out of your monitor's scan range. Try 
running XF86Setup, as root, and reconfigure.

Hi all

I have just downloaded X onto my Linux box and this time I am determined to
get it up and running. The configuration did not go by the book so I am now
wondering is there a FAQ or something that I can go to. I just get a blank
screen and when I try to change virtual console I get video back and a
message to the effect that the Xserver did not start.

Any help would be much appreciated.
