Xfree resolution

Hi.
I've used gtf to configure 1024x768@110Hz : ./gtf 1024 768 110
And now kde utility shows me my resolution as 110Hz, but actual resolution 60Hz

What I did wrong?
Code:

configure it for 60hz
Call it horziontal sync rate or vertical sync rate.

It is different than that of resolution. May be you have made this mistake by mistake(Becoz its a mistake)

Your modeline specifies 110Hz, but that doesn't necessarily mean that's the mode you're using. You haven't specified the hsync/rsync so if X can't detect it properly, it'll probably fall back to a more conservative mode. Have a look at your log file (/var/log/Xorg.0.log) to see what hsync/rsync values it detected and which mode it selected.
