SuSE 10.2 Refresh Rate/Resolution

[mercilessqtip]

prior to installing my nvidia driver i was getting 75 hz refresh rate. no the highest i can get is 58 is that a problem or should i not worry about, seems to be running fine, i also have my resolution set to 1400x 900 would that affect refresh rate, is this even a problem i should be concerned about?
id like to turn on XGL but last time i did i rebooted and it froze at the desktop, and if i try to turn it on it says my gfx card is not in xgl's database but, it is , its an nvidia 6200 256 mb card, however my cpu is only 500 mhz and i have 768 mb ram would this also affect xgl?

Same here. It is weird that my screen (acer AL71 shows 74.6 Hz refresh rate, but through KDE control center I cannot set it higher than 56 Hz.

are you using a nvidia 6200 card, btw i have an lg 19in im not sure exactly im not on my system now.. but when i had 10.1 my refresh rate would run 75 hz, but i think i may have figure it out under the control center via kde i went to gfx setting.. and changed a few things.. and set it to 1400x900 wxga i think.. and refresh at 75 hz,, i think it fixed it but like i said im not at home now and using my friends windo pc blows.. its so.. plain and ugly and i think vista blows

Can you actully precieve a difference between 57 and 70 frames per second. If so I guess it makes a difference but most people can't.

Also try running glxgears from a console it will show the true rates your card is refreshing 'graphics'. Note changing the size of the graphic will change the rates. For my NVIDIA 6800 card with the NVIDIA drivers installed I get 10,672 FPS at the default size. Full screen is 1193 FPS I think thats enough
