Unfortunately there were no error messages shown in your Xorg.0.log. Can you please reproduce the issue, and then look in Xorg.0.log, Xorg.0.log.old, and your logs in /var/log/gdm/ for one with a relevant error message, and attach that?

Else, run X from the console via startx, and attach the console output from it after it's ended.
