    What error messages do you get? Did you install the graphical interface when you installed Debian?

    When you type startx, what errors (or messages of any kind) do you see?

    Do you have the X package set up and xorg configured? Do you have installed a windowmanager or desktop environment? Give us more information on what you did and what errors you get exactly, otherwise no one can help you.
