About Refresh Rate

[Buddha123]

Hello everybody!
I have a 19-inch LCD Monitor. When I install Fedora Core 6, its refresh rate is automatically set to 75Hz. The manufacturer of my monitor recommend that I should set the refresh rate to 60 Hz. So I changed the refresh rate parameters in xorg.conf but it wasn't successful. Below is my xorg.conf

In GNOME, under System/Preferences/Screen Resolution, you can specify the refresh rate. KDE also has the ability to do this. In the Control Center, Peripherals, Display you can set it.

Sorry I can't change the refresh rate because there is only one option (75Hz) here.
