What works for me is the following:
sudo cp a 'working' xorg.conf (see example that worked for me attached)
then DO NOT REBOOT OR RESTART
instead
sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
This will backup your xorg and install a 'fresh' version like here:
# xorg.conf (X.Org X Window System server configuration file)
#
# This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using
# values from the debconf database.
#
# Edit this file with caution, and see the xorg.conf manual page.
# (Type "man xorg.conf" at the shell prompt.)
#
# This file is automatically updated on xserver-xorg package upgrades *only*
# if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xorg
# package.
#
# If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated
# again, run the following command:
# sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg

Seems though that somehow the previous xorg content is saved somewhere
because when I reboot it loads up fine.
Logically thinking, maybe just adding a single section into the 'fresh'
xorg.conf, and running sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg might
also work, but haven't tried yet.
Won't solve the compiz problems though.. still can't activate effects
here.
