if you're just interested in seeing if it's there, try this:
find / -name "xorg.conf"
Try:
locate xorg.conf

find, but
with huge disks searching everywhere would take, well, a while.

this is true and a good tip. it is quicker. however, xorg.conf could
have been created before his locate database was recomputed to include
it. figured i'd cover all his bases.
Even quicker method (as compared to refreshing a locate database)
for searching for a .conf file...
find /usr/local/etc /etc -name "BLAH.conf"
One should know that almost all conf files are located in /usr/local/
etc or /etc in FreeBSD.
