Have you tried "# XFree86 -configure"?
>From the man pages:
-configure
When this option is specified, the X server loads
all video driver modules, probes for available
hardware, and writes out an initial XF86Config(5x)
file based on what was detected. This option cur
rently has some problems on some platforms, but in
most cases it is a good way to bootstrap the con
figuration process. This option is only available
when the server is run as root (i.e, with real-uid
0).
If that doesn't work, I would suggest searching the XFree86 mailing
lists:
