This is how I did when I had similar problem. Install XF 3.3.6 and then look at the Modeline in the /etc/X11/XF86Config for the 1024x768 @ 100Hz modeline. Cut and paste this Modeline in your XF86Config-4 config file. Other option: Start XF 3.3.6 and fireup xvidtune. Note down all the values. Then start XF4 and start xvidtune and adjust all the values to the ones noted. and then generate a Modeline. Use this mode line in your XF86Config-4. ----Original Message Follows---- From: "Phil R Lawrence" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [expert] can't set video refresh Date: Mon, 11 Dec 2000 09:08:48 -0600 I must have a loadstone under my cubicle, because 85Hz refresh rate flickers horribly. Fortunately I have a Gateway vx700 monitor, which (along with my ATI card) does 100Hz @ 1024x768. Unfortunately, I can't get this setting in mandrake. My monitor and card are detected correctly. XF86Config-4 has the correct ranges for vertical and horizontal refresh rates. I ran xf86config by hand and it produced the same output that is already in XF86Config-4, no additional parameters for specific refresh rates were evident. when I startx, however, my monitor reports it is running at 85Hz. How can I force this thing to do 100Hz @ 1024x768?
