Which xserver-xorg-video-intel did you have before? Stable/Etch? Lenny?
Unstable? (look in /var/log/dpkg.log or /var/log/aptitude)

This can't work. Xinerama isn't supported anymore, now the Intel driver
does RandR 1.2. You should have a single Device section and a single
Screen section. All the remaining things are handled dynamically with
xrandr. See http://bgoglin.livejournal.com/9846.html, and maybe
http://bgoglin.livejournal.com/10214.html and
http://bgoglin.livejournal.com/10423.html
