It looks like the modularized Xorg finally got into unstable, which is
good news I believe. Only problem is that I moved from testing to
unstable, and although I can start X up by running just X, now I can't
get an X session from wdm for example neither startx.

I'm sure I'm just missing some packages because in testing there's a
monolitic X as opposed to the modularized one in unstable, but I have
no idea which ones I'm missing.

Can some one provide a list of basic packages now required to run X
(xorg) sessions under unstable?

Check out the Xorg transition wiki first; it has solutions for the most
common problems related to the upgrade:
