Thanks.  I am running the standard SVGA server, whatever version came with xfree86
3.3.3 (i am not sure).   Where are you talking about changing refresh rates?  I
entered those for my monitor manually, but I take it that you are talking about
something under the expert tab in SaX on the video card page.  Let me know more plese.

Thaks,
