looks like your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 was re-written for some reason. if you
have a backup copy, replace it with the currently "working" one, and start X.
if not, you will need to either edit the file manualy and repair the "screens"
section. either do it by hand or use dexconf to do it for you.
another way to go is with dpkg :
dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86
