Looks like you're right, xorg.conf doesn't seem to exist any more.
But the man page is still present, so you could generate one based
on that.

If you still have an old xorg.conf from a backup or a running
system you still copy it to /etc/X11 and the Xorg server will use
it.  I have a fairly old xorg.conf there and it works.

The other possibilty would be to use startx und put a ''xset -r''
command into $HOME/.xinitc.  That's how I do it.
