Just out of curiocity have you made sure that the external monitor port is turned on, usually done by pressing the function key (fn) and the appropriate "f" key? I know that when my laptop was working I had to do that to get it to work, and your config file looks like everything is set right to me.

here's mine
Here is my xorg.conf which works with intel 915gm graphics and xinerama mode is enabled. Find the differences yourself I think it is important to mention that I could not get it working with earlier versions of kernel than 2.6.15 and xorg 7.0, but now it really works.

Code:
# /etc/X11/xorg.conf (xorg 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 /etc/X11/xorg.conf manual page.
# (Type "man /etc/X11/xorg.conf" at the shell prompt.)
#
# This file is automatically updated on xserver-xorg package upgrades *only*
# if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xorg
# package.
#
# If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated
# again, run the following command:
#   sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
