Alright, I'm doing an all-out assualt on trying to get this issue fixed.
Posting on every forum possible and reading like crazy.
The issue is pretty simple. I have duplicate desktops and/or entries on my gnome panel(top, black bar).

As you can see the duplicates increase and the screen space diminishes after each subsequent restart, until my primary desktop is left a black screen.
I did a fresh install of Debian Wheezy. Put in new drivers via the description provided here:

I ran the follwoing to generate a xorg for multiple video cards:
aticonfig --adapter=all --initial
Here's a current Xorg.conf:
