On my RH 9 system: rpm -qf /usr/X11R6/man/man1/xrandr.1x.gz returns: XFree86-4.3.0-2 Are you certain you typed: "man xrandr" (w/o the quotes) at a shell prompt? If so, and there's nothing there, it looks like your X installation is messed up. In any case, I was suggesting you try: "xrandr -s 2" I'm not certain if there is a way to change the refresh rate short of hand editing you XF86Config file. Maybe someone else knows about this.
