As for your xorg problems, install the following packages:

xserver-xorg-core
xserver-xorg-input-all
xserver-xorg-video-all

Why the -all packages? xserver-xorg-input-kbd and
xserver-xorg-input-mouse should be enough for the input part and for
video the xserver-xorg-video-vesa (to try Mirco Piccin's suggestion)
and the coresponding driver for his video card.

Why install 'vesa' when you can install your card's driver? 'vesa' is not the best choice, unless you got problems your card. My way you get all the drivers.
