> I have NO xorg or XF86 config file in either /etc or /etc/X11, NONE AT ALL.
DESCRIPTION
Xorg uses a configuration file called xorg.conf for its initial setup. This
configuration file is searched for in the
following places when the server is started as a normal user:
/etc/X11/<cmdline>
/usr/X11R6/etc/X11/<cmdline>
/etc/X11/$XORGCONFIG
/usr/X11R6/etc/X11/$XORGCONFIG
/etc/X11/xorg.conf-4
/etc/X11/xorg.conf
/etc/xorg.conf
/usr/X11R6/etc/X11/xorg.conf.<hostname>
/usr/X11R6/etc/X11/xorg.conf-4
/usr/X11R6/etc/X11/xorg.conf
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xorg.conf.<hostname>
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xorg.conf-4
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xorg.conf
where <cmdline> is a relative path (with no ".." components) specified
with the -config command line option, $XORGCON-
FIG is the relative path (with no ".." components) specified by
that environment variable, and <hostname> is the
machine's hostname as reported by gethostname(3).
When the Xorg server is started by the "root" user, the config file
search locations are as follows:
<cmdline>
/etc/X11/<cmdline>
/usr/X11R6/etc/X11/<cmdline>
$XORGCONFIG
/etc/X11/$XORGCONFIG
/usr/X11R6/etc/X11/$XORGCONFIG
$HOME/xorg.conf
/etc/X11/xorg.conf-4
/etc/X11/xorg.conf
/etc/xorg.conf
/usr/X11R6/etc/X11/xorg.conf.<hostname>
/usr/X11R6/etc/X11/xorg.conf-4
/usr/X11R6/etc/X11/xorg.conf
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xorg.conf.<hostname>
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xorg.conf-4
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xorg.conf
where <cmdline> is the path specified with the -config command line
option (which may be absolute or relative),
$XORGCONFIG is the path specified by that environment variable
(absolute or relative), $HOME is the path specified by
that environment variable (usually the home directory), and <hostname>
is the machine's hostname as reported by geth-
ostname(3).
