Have you taken a look at `/var/log/XFree86.0.log`? Also, have you tried
explicitly setting the refresh rates? I know the book for my Samsung has the
_exact_ rates for every resolution and those are what I use. I do not use
ranges.

I used to be interested in Windows NT, but the more I see of it the more it
looks like traditional Windows with a stabler kernel. I don't find anything
technically interesting there. In my opinion MS is a lot better at making money
than it is at making good operating systems.  -- Linus Torvalds
