I'm trying to set a higher refresh rate than what XFree86 defaults to, and
I'm having no luck. I need a refresh rate of at least 120 Hz, and I know
that my monitor and video card can do it. Everything I've read says that
XFree86 should pick the highest available refresh rate, but that's not the
case. I've also read the Timings how-to, and that hasn't been too helpful.
The system is being used to do hardware 3D stereo, so I need the highest
refresh rate I can get to avoid flicker with shutter glasses.
I haven't been able to find the max bandwidth or HFL/VFL info for my
monitor, but here's the rest of my config information. If necessary, I can
provide my XF86Config and XFree86.0.log files.
