Ok, lets see.  Here are all of the Xorg packages I have installed on
my T40.

xserver-xorg
xserver-xorg-core
xserver-xorg-input-evdev
xserver-xorg-input-kbd
xserver-xorg-input-mouse
xserver-xorg-input-synaptics
xserver-xorg-video-ati
xserver-xorg-video-vesa

If you have all of them loaded then try aptitude and search for these
packages,  If one has a dependancy required, aptitude should show it.

aptitude -f install  might just pick up what you are missing as well.
Worth a try anyway.
