Ubuntu: No screens found - What's wrong with this xorg?

due to problems with flickering und rough edges on windows, even without nvidia drivers, I try to rebuild the whole xorg by hand. I ran X -configure and got a standard xorg.conf I have to edit. I set my monitor but always get a "No screens found". How does that come?
Here is my current xorg.conf

By the way. Why is there no xorg.conf by default? How does Ubuntu get any graphical data without it?

Here is the xorg output (It's 2 because I test the configuration with xinit -- :2)

[  7441.101] 
X.Org X Server 1.9.0
