You can use mine to get an idea of how it should look.
Code:
$ cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf
# XF86Config-4 (XFree86 X Window System server configuration file)
#
# This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using
# values from the debconf database.
#
# Edit this file with caution, and see the XF86Config-4 manual page.
# (Type "man XF86Config-4" at the shell prompt.)
#
# This file is automatically updated on xserver-xfree86 package upgrades *only*
# if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xfree86
# package.

# If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated
# again, run the following commands as root:
#
# cp /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 /etc/X11/XF86Config-4.custom
# md5sum /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 >/var/lib/xfree86/XF86Config-4.md5sum

You best bet is to make a copy of your original file then modify the working file to have the extra settings for the second Device, Screen and Monitor sections needed. To find the BusID needed in the Device sections look in your /var/log/Xorg.0.log or XFree86.0.log for a part like this.
Code:

Need to setup multiple displays on different VGA cards [NVIDIA GeForce] in Debian
