Hi,
Here is what I did to change the refresh rate of my
monitor from 85Hz to 100Hz. My monitor was correctly
recognised and the HorizSync and VertRefresh values
were already nicely reported in XF86Config-4. Check
that yours are too. if not look them up in the users
manual and edit the values yourself.    
1. I commented out from /etc/X11/XF86Config all
Modelines with a different refresh rate other than the
one I desired (which of course complies with the
specs) at my resolution (1024x768). 
2. I then went back to /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 and added
this Section.

Section "Modes"
        Identifier "Modes0"
        Modeline "1024x768"   115.5  1024 1056 1248
1440  768  771  781  802 -HSync -VSync
EndSection

Which of course was then the only one I left reported
in XF86Config for 1024x768.

3. At last I added a single line on the Monitor
Section in /etc/X11/XF86Config-4

 Section "Monitor"
        Identifier "T550"
        UseModes "Modes0"	#Added this line here
        VendorName "EIZO"
        ModelName  "FlexScan"
        HorizSync 30 - 82
        VertRefresh 50 - 160
        Option "dpms"
EndSection

4. restart xserver and good luck

Cheers,
Makis Asimidis
