nvidia refresh rate

[SVwander]

How can I adjust the refresh rate for my nvidia video card? I download and successfully installed the driver using automatix. I can make all sorts of adjustment but I cannot seem to adjust the refresh rate. This same machine has Ubuntu on it. When I am able to boot into that OS the refresh rate is 80 or there about. I really enjoy Kubuntu but I find it hard to use at an eye killing 60hz

Re: nvidia refresh rate

Hi,

You should try to edit you /etc/X11/xorg.conf file. Before to do so, make a backup, then, change the line with your resolution by adding the resolution :
For example :
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Device "Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller"
Monitor "Generic Monitor"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Depth 16
Modes "1024x768"
EndSubSection
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1024x768@75"
EndSubSection
EndSection

Hope it helps
