As in man xf86cfg:
When the DISPLAY environment variable is not set, xf86cfg
will run the command XFree86 -configure to allow the
xserver detect the hardware in the computer, and write an
initial XF86Config file in the user's home directory.
Then, it will start XFree86 and allow customizations.
-> xf86cfg detects the hardware and creates a new XF86Config file for
you, which is placed in the users homedirectory (in this case, /root).
Now you can modify this new file to fit your needs (localization,
special mousedrivers, ...) and copy it to /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 if
ready.
Then start your X-Server again and everything should work properly.
