I accidentally deleted xorg.conf.original-0; xorg.conf.fglrx xorg.conf.fglrx-0-1, after I tried to install fglrx drivers on the graphics card, which in fact worked on 13.04 and now as I went to 13.10 has not worked.

      Now I can just switch to a new TTY with:  Ctrl + Alt + F2

I found this which is for nVidia cards

TO install the fglrx drivers for graphic card I used this tutorial

Is there any possibility that I can recover, replace, rebuilb that xorg.conf.original-0, and if exists any possibility where I could start from.

First terminate the X using:

sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop

Then reconfigure you're driver using:

sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

And restart GUI:

sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
