The command only sets up the desired configuration. X needs to be restarted, or reboot for it to take effect, which cannot happen if the kernel command line is causing KMS to be blocked via nomodeset or nouveau.modeset=0.

(5) My installation has no /etc/x11/xorg.conf.d/ folder in /etc/x11/

Since it is an optional folder, /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ may not have been created previously. Creating a file in a folder that doesn't exist implies first creating the folder to place the required file in it.
