X and Fluxbox :: setting refresh Rate



How do you change the refresh Rate of the screen?
Is everybody satisfied with the screen refresh rate?

The refresh rate on my screen is 60 HZ and this terrible.

Apart from installing a full X-server (on a HD installation) there isn't much you can do. Search the forum to find out how to do this.
On 3 different machines there is the same horrifying screen refresh rate (I suppose it is about 60 HZ).

No way out?

Try seaching the forums.

There was a post that described how you could use third party DOS tools like VBEHZ or ATI / NVIDIA specific tools to set your VESA refresh rate to something besides 60HZ.

The general idea is:

1) Boot into MSDOS/Win9x True DOS prompt/FreeDOS
2) Use the appropriate Video card DOS utility program
3) Use "loadlin" program to boot into DSL using a VESA framebuffer mode.
4) Choose "xfbdev" server for your xsetup.

Or you can do a hard disk install and replace the DSL Xwindows servers with the full-blown XFree86 system.
