To be more precise, tell us,
- what PHP/IM/GM packages do you use?
- what's your Image Processing configuration and did any of the 
install-tool tests fail?

Maybe this is a startingpoint for you: Did you check your GDlib/IM 
setting in the TYPO3-install-tool? There are some configuration examples 
for Debian servers in the wiki:

But I don't know if these are the actual settings for Sarge.
