    How Can i Change the refresh rate of the monitor
    i use fedora core 3
    my screen resolution is 1280 X 1024
    when i go to Applications --> Preferences --> Screen Resolution
    i find that there is only one value for the refresh rate which is 60
    Hz & i can't change it
    i went to the file /etc/x11/xorg.conf
    i found this section :

    Section "Monitor"
            Identifier "Monitor0"
            VendorName "Monitor Vendor"
            ModelName "710E"
            DisplaySize 330 250
            HorizSync 30.0 - 71.0
            VertRefresh 50.0 - 160.0
            Option "dpms"
    EndSection

    what should i do to increase the refresh rate of my monitor from 60 Hz
    to 90 Hz or 100 Hz ??

    can anyone help me with this please ?
