Guest thealt Posted December 27, 2004 Report Share Posted December 27, 2004 Hi all. I just installed mandrake 10 yesterday. I need to change my monitor Hz to 85 but in the options theres only 70 maximum, my monitor does 85 maximum in 1024 X 768. How do I enable 85Hz?

solarian Posted December 27, 2004 Report Share Posted December 27, 2004 (edited) 1st : as root write in terminal init 3 (I think this was it, you must kill X before continuing) 2nd : as root open the /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 (try with emacs) 3rd : browse to where your monitor is in the file and manually change the frequency --- True, this is somewhat crude, but you change the Hz Maybe someone can give you a more elegant solution. edit: or maybe you haven't told MDK what monitor you have? go to MCC (hardware->monitor) and look if the right monitor is recognized. maybe it's just 'plug 'n play' and not your particular model p.s. MDK 10.1 is really nice Edited December 27, 2004 by solarian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daniewicz Posted December 27, 2004 Report Share Posted December 27, 2004 but in the options theres only 70 maximum When you say this do you mean from "Screen Resize and Rotate"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
