My refresh rate always goes to 60 hz when I start my computer. I have to use nvidia-settings to change it to 69 hz each time I reboot. How can I get my computer to go to 69 hz automatically without me having to use nvidia-settings each time after I reboot? I am using Ubuntu Feisty Fawn with a GeForce 6200 LE video card and 21 inch ViewSonic monitor. Here is my /etc/X11/xorg.conf. I was having trouble getting 69 hz refresh rate but after some changes to my xorg.conf, I am able to get it.
Code:
