No, single user mode only has root as a user and doesn't have the full 
OS running or any networking.  When you go to a different console that 
way, you're at a CLI (Command Line Interface) with the machine up and 
running, including networking.

My suggestion is to log in there as root and use nano (a simple text 
editor) to edit xorg.config.  I suspect the error is using 1280x1024_60 
as your mode instead of 1280x1024 because I've never seen it done that 
way.  Just put a pound sign (#) in front of each line you added, making 
them comments, then save, exit and reboot.  If nothing else, that will 
get you back where you started.
