This sounds like a broken xorg.conf file. Try running without an
xorg.conf file. Hardy and Intrepid should manage without one, and/or
automatically generate a new one for you. Then use the restricted
drivers utility System ->  Administration -> Hardware Drivers (NOT
ENVY!!!) to install drivers if required.

Eg:

sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.old
