Any time I have every used it it never gave you a file that was to be put in 
place of the X configuration one. It has always said that you can test using 
a file that is placed in the /root directory and even then the file never 
worked for me because it always leaves out things like the font paths and 
such now it has been awhile since I tried it so maybe things have changed ...  
Is there some reason your not using "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-org" without 
the quotes to try and get a working file?
