Do not do this. You must have the details for you monitor. Especially if it is a CRT, it could even kill it if the details are wrong.

but at the end, no xorg.conf file is written on the disk in /etc/X11 ?

It has to be there.

No it doesn't. xorgcfg actually defaults to writing xorg.conf to some subdirectory of /usr/X11R6/lib/X11 or some such nowadays rather than /etc/X11. You can see that path when you ask it to save the configuration. Probably the docs need to be updated to include the other more cryptic path as another place to look besides /etc/X11.
