Nowadays Xorg auto detection is quite good.  

If, you want to make some changes, generate xorg.conf: 

<file>X -configure
mv ~/xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf
X
</file>
If something go wrong, look to **/var/log/Xorg.0.log** for details. Errors are marked by double E - **(EE)** ex. 

<file>(EE) Failed to load module "ati" (module does not exist, 0)

 It means that probably, graphic diver isn't installed.
