So nvidia-xconfig may have misdetected the X version and generated a
file with the wrong name.

Please retry with the current version of nvidia-xconfig (304.48-1) but
first move aside your XF86Config and delete the xorg.conf symlink to
regenerate the file from scratch - does it use the correct filename?
