Where is the file that has the configuration of the screen refresh rate?
 

Just need it's location so I can edit it, you don't have to tell me where I can locate a program that edits the file, I already know about a program that does that, just need the location of the file.

In Fedora 2, it is usually in /etc/X11/XF86Config

Peace,

/etc/X11/xorg.conf
I see the file but I don't see the settings for the refresh rate, I think my screen is set to 60Mhz right now but the number 60 isn't even in this file..

# To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the
# lines below (which are the defaults). For example, for a non-U.S.
# keyboard, you will probably want to use:
# Option "XkbModel" "pc102"
# If you have a US Microsoft Natural keyboard, you can use:
# Option "XkbModel" "microsoft"
#
# Then to change the language, change the Layout setting.
# For example, a german layout can be obtained with:
# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# or:
# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
#
# If you'd like to switch the positions of your capslock and
# control keys, use:
# Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:swapcaps"
# Or if you just want both to be control, use:
# Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:nocaps"

I believe it is the VertRefresh, which in your case is huge, 48-120. My system also has an "unknown" monitor, and mine is trimmed down to 50-70. You can try trimming that and restarting x, see if that improves things.

Cool, now everything works as I want it to. :)
I wanted to change the refresh rate to 75 and the resolution to 1280x960. The tools red hat gave me just didn't want to do that..
I think I know better then the tools what my hardware is capable of. :)
