X should point to the X-server, I believe, (I'm not at my machine
right now.)   If it says it can't find the config file, I suggest
you look in /etc or /etc/X11 for a file called XF86Config.
There may be other locations for this congfig file (check
'man XF86Config' for a more complete listing of places that X will
look.)  Then, go to your root directory (the real root "/",
not "/root",) and do a 'find | grep XF86Config' for a listing
to find out where, (and if), the config file is on your system.
Note that this will also bring up any file like XF86Config.eg (the
standard example config file).

If you can't find it, you may have to create a new one with
XF86Setup, or Xconfigurator if you have RedHat.
