It's some sort of permission problem. I guess that it's related to
xauth. I had similar problem like you describe, but they don't appear
when a display manager is running (which is my default configuration).
So I didn't analyse this deeper.
If I remember correctly there are some xauth-related dirs and files,
either in ~/ or im /tmp (probably both). Maybe you've to remove them.
But this is just a wild guess, to be honest. But it definetely hasn't
anything to do with xorg.conf.
