OK! This happened to me too, everytime I rebooted my pc the xorg lost the
configuration and I had to reinstall again.
I resolved it reinstalling the driver and telling it that DONT modify the
xorg, then I edited xorg and just changed the driver for nvidia, also
uninstalling the free drives that came with ubuntu.

This is my XORG:
