    monitor always resets to 60 hz on startup SOLVED

    I'm moving this from another thread to a new topic to avoid colliisions.

    I have this in my /etc/X11/xorg.conf :

    Section "Monitor"
    Identifier "Generic Monitor"
    VendorName "Plug 'n' Play"
    ModelName "Plug 'n' Play"
    Gamma 1
    ModeLine "1280x960@85" 25.2 640 656 752 800 480 490 492 525 -hsync -vsync
    EndSection

    Section "Screen"
    Identifier "Default Screen"
    Device "Generic Video Card"
    Monitor "Generic Monitor"
    DefaultDepth 24
    Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True"
    SubSection "Display"
    Virtual 1280 960
    Depth 24
    Modes "1280x960@85"
    EndSubSection
    EndSection

    But everytime X starts I have to run nvidia settings to set the monitor from 60 to 85 hz

    [Edit] I also still have the problem that on reboot random resolutions are set, sometimes i can move the mouse to the edges so I'm able to operate the windows, sometimes not. It's a bit frustrating that this problem persists, it makes me doubt the stableness of the stuff while my goal was to move to a more stable os to run amyserver on. I have the idea that all is related to the nividia driver.

    [Edit2] using the mode line tool mentioned elswhere in this forum
    http://www.bohne-lang.de/spec/linux/modeline/
    I was able to generate a modeline which starts up x the way I want, pff.
    If this is gonna stick, I'll put a SOLVED in the topic of this thread.
