Have you tried running this?
dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86
That will take you through the original install setup questions for X,
then generate a new XF86config file.
You might want to back up the original one before doing this.
NB: This is just a guess. No promises this will fix your problem..
Cheers,
Simon
