Changing the hertzage?

Hmm... in UT2k3 and America's Army (native, not Wine) my refresh rate always gets stuck to something low... either 56hz or 60hz... anyone know how to fix that?

You might want to talk a look at the file /etc/X11/XF86Config, and see what X is using for your monitors refresh rate, you are going to be looking under the part called "Monitors". That might have something to do with it.

If that doesn't help, try checking the directory where you installed the two games as there should be a settings file where you can edit the refresh rate.
