    was this a clean install, upgrade, or modification?

    If it was a clean install, I would validate the media (cd's) and reinstall, making sure that you select the "Desktop" in the additional hardware section.

    If it was an upgrade or modification, i would either save your data and reinstall fresh, or run apt-get to reinstall xserver.
