But about the ifconfig -a command; it only reports the interfaces

Nope. ifconfig -a lists all devices active in the kernel. The "-a" stands
for "all" (as opposed to just the configured ones, which is the output of
ifconfig without -a).
Also, /etc/X11/interfaces shouldn't exist or have anything to do with you
networking. On Debian, the main file for network configuration is
/etc/network/interfaces.
