Hello Richard,

If I understood you right, there may be involved other's 
Distros 'update' features...?

I'm not very skilled in X-related things, and I know just a little about 
Debian Linux... anyway.

1)  What's in your X-log. On Woody, it might be stored in 
/var/log/XFree86.0.log
It's a good thing to check at first ;-)

2) Default path on my machine is /etc/X11/XF86Config-4.
Do you have a file there ?
Do you have a backup of your old ( working ) Config ?
Try to use it, then.
X-Setup tools backup generally, I hope. 


3)  I wonder about the sections in your Config....seem to be rather 
minimalistic configured...because of some good autodetection ?


To illustrate, I give you 2 xamples from my Config:

Section "Monitor" ends with two lines like 
HorizSync   30-95
VertRefresh  50-160

Section "Screen" looks like
        Identifier      "Default Screen"
        Device          "Generic Video Card"
        Monitor         "Generic Monitor"
        DefaultDepth    16

        SubSection "Display"
                Depth           16
                Modes           "1600x1200" "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" 
        EndSubSection   
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth           24
                Modes           "1024x768" "800x600" "640x400"
        EndSubSection
EndSection







It's just wild guessed.
But, HTH anyway...
