Phew what a ride!
Xorg changes can't affect your virtual terminals. If you could switch to a virtual terminal (and it wasn't corrupt/completely black) but not type then that suggests something more severe. If you were unable to type within X though then yes that could be a xorg.conf misconfiguration.
The metacity problem sounds unrelated to this though. I would spin off a new bug about that problem and add a link to the new bug back here. I would also attach the ~/.xsession-errors file that is produced during a faulty run (e.g. log in trying to metacity then once hard disk stops flickering log in on a virtual terminal and copy that file to different name). Did you ever try and turn on desktop effects?
