I just built a brand new 7.2 STABLE machine, and the xorg package. startx

The Handbook has an up-to-date section on xorg configuration:

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

I have not created a /etx/X11/ config file yet. Do I need to do so?

With dbus and hal enabled, and one monitor, maybe not.  Try it.

If so, what;s the best way?

Copy the previous xorg.conf, edit to take advantage of new xorg features or changes. You can use X -configure, but the only section that it does well is the Device section with all the commented options.
