screen refresh rate configuration?

Hi there again.

I need to know how to keep the monitor's refresh rate (LXRandr) at 60Hz, because every time I reboot the PC the refresh rate gets set at 87Hz, even if I clic the "save" button.

Re: screen refresh rate configuration?

Hi!

Every time at booting X reconfigures from scratch. It's reflection of the LiveCD nature of SliTaz, because you can run it on different hardware.

To change dispay resolution, refresh rate, and other display related parameters from commandline or scripts, you can use xrandr. People says that it isn't installed by default. Here is xrandr man: http://www.x.org/archive/X11R7.5/doc/man/man1/xrandr.1.html

You need to put some similar to [c]xrandr --rate 60[/c] to boot script.

That's all what I can help you. My netbook have only one mode: 1024x600@60 Hz, and I never changed it, and never added anything to any boot script.

Cancel that. I foud it.

I enter as superuser and edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-Monitor.conf

In that conf file I changed the refresh ratio from 60-120 to 60-60

Performed a reboot and voilà, perfect!

Re: screen refresh rate configuration?

Hi All,

Would please specify the code you used or inserted?

Because all I found in the file is the following:

"Section "Monitor"

    Identifier   "Monitor0"

    VendorName   "Monitor Vendor"

    ModelName    "Monitor Model"

EndSection"

Where to put the refresh rate and what command to use?

Thank you a lot.
