MySQL missing my.cnf

Hi,

SLES11 : I've installed the following MySQL Package:
Code:
MySQL-client-community-5.1.54-1.sles11.x86_64
MySQL-devel-community-5.1.54-1.sles11.x86_64
MySQL-server-community-5.1.54-1.sles11.x86_64
MySQL-shared-community-5.1.54-1.sles11.x86_64

Problem: I don't see any my.cnf file (find / -name my.cnf) on my host. The only configsfile are the following in the
/usr/share/mysql directories:
Code:
# ls -ltr my-*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  2441 2010-12-02 22:27 my-small.cnf
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  4673 2010-12-02 22:27 my-medium.cnf
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  4662 2010-12-02 22:27 my-large.cnf
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 19751 2010-12-02 22:27 my-innodb-heavy-4G.cnf
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  4688 2010-12-02 22:27 my-huge.cnf

But nothing about the my.cnf!
Where could be the problem?
Should I create a slefmade file?

Regards

Did you try to start the service?

Code:
/etc/init.d/mysql start
