Use XF86Setup, it's MUCH easier. If it's not installed on your system (can't remember if it's a separate package in 2.1 or not), then you can find it in dselect under xf86setup or do an apt-get install xf86setup. I've never had a problem with the config file from this program, and without seeing the config file I can't even guess what's wrong. I can guess it's close to line 507 though. :)
