from man 5 xorg.conf:
/etc/X11/<cmdline>
/usr/local/etc/X11/<cmdline>
/etc/X11/$XORGCONFIG
/usr/local/etc/X11/$XORGCONFIG
/etc/X11/xorg.conf-4
/etc/X11/xorg.conf
/etc/xorg.conf
/usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.<hostname>
/usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf-4
/usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf
/usr/local/lib/X11/xorg.conf.<hostname>
/usr/local/lib/X11/xorg.conf-4
/usr/local/lib/X11/xorg.conf
Which is unless it was changed at compile time,
which if you didn't it isn't.
