LOL! Proof positive, that using emacs makes you stupid. Wow.

What can I do, should I look for another version of Linux?

It sounds to me like you should just stick with Windoze, but if you insist
on trying to use Linux, I'd suggest you use another editor which should be
already installed (vi, nano, joe, ed, jed, probably others). Or, just
recreate the xorg.conf file using whatever utility Fedora uses to do so.
