I'm not too sure what you mean by that but I take it to mean that
you've installed X but havent configured it yet. The handbook explains
what to do:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/x-config.html

Just follow what they do in the handbook in the link above.

No. xorg.conf is a file which lives in /etc/X11/xorg.conf but you have
to put it there once you've created it with:

# Xorg -configure

and tested it with:

# Xorg -config xorg.conf.new

It might need some tweaking (editing) e.g French keyboard instead of
English. Then do:

# cp ./xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf

and try starting X:

$ startx

If those commands aren't found, then you either need to rehash your
shell:

# rehash

or you haven't installed X properly. How did you install X?

Sorry. I don't know what you mean.

As above.

HTH but let us know if anything is not clear or you have further
problems.
