I am experiencing a similar issue with my BBB.  I am a beginner and have 
not quite done debian yet on mine.  Just wondering, because I still am 
running Angstrom, might you have a command similar to yours below for 
Angstrom?

sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup
sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-fbdev
sudo reboot

When I run it:

root@beaglebone:~# sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup
-sh: sudo: command not found
root@beaglebone:~# sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-fbdev
-sh: sudo: command not found
root@beaglebone:~# sudo reboot
-sh: sudo: command not found
root@beaglebone:~#


Many thanks! I had a GUI with cursor the very first time I powered my BBB 
on, failed to shut it down improperly after, and have not seen it since. 
I've even successfully re-flashed mine with a SD card twice.  I can provide 
any logs and feed back to whomever needs it to help solve this particular 
speed bump in my development learning process.  Again, Thanks!
