Checking the content of /etc/X11 dir, I saw that xorg.conf file is missing. Is that normal? I only have xorg.conf.failsafe configuration file with the following lines:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Configured Video Device"
Driver "vesa"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Configured Monitor"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Monitor "Configured Monitor"
Device "Configured Video Device"
EndSection
Is, the one above, a correct configuration file? Or, I have to restore the xorg.conf file? If yes, how can I do that? The current driver used is:
sudo lshw -c display | grep driver
[sudo] password di michele:
configuration: driver=i915 latency=0
and
lspci | grep -E 'VGA|Display|3D'

A few hours ago, after rebooting my OS, I got a black screen with message:
your system is running in low-graphics mode
but after restarting the pc, all strangely returned as before.
Thanks!
You CAN create one though." Some users may desire or need to use a custom xorg.conf to configure options (refresh rate is probably most common) or hardware (touchpad is probably most common here). A better question is, what problem are you having with X and what makes you feel you need an xorg.conf ? If it is not broken, don't fix it.
