try auto configuring X with debconf and the discover (and mdetect)
packages:

make sure you have discover and mdetect installed;
backup your 'good' XF86Config-4;
purge X: dpkg --force-depends --purge xserver-xfree86
reinstall and autoconfigure X:  apt-get install xserver-xfree86

autoconfiguration only works with a fresh install - dpkg-reconfigure will
not redo it.

HT works for you.
