In an emergency: Kill gdm/kdm/xdm to stop any currently running X Windows session. Run Xorg -configure as root. This generates an new xorg.conf based on an X best guess as to your hardware. The screen of output ends: Your xorg.conf is /root/xorg.conf.new To test the server, run 'X -config /root/xorg.conf.new' [If you do run that command and you get the grey screen with an X shaped cursor, then the automatically generated configuration file is probably correct and can be copied to /etc/X11/xorg.conf ].
