Can't set refresh rate to 75 with Samsung SyncMaster 932 BF

Hi,
I can't set refresh rate to 75Hz both in Gnome display properties and in Nvidia panel. So i have it stuck at 60Hz.
I've tried several solutions i found on forums but none of them worked
Here is my xorg.conf :

1st :  It runs perfectly fine at 1280x1024@75Hz in Windows XP/Vista, so there is no reason it shouldn't work in Linux. In Nvidia-panel there is even the 75Hz option in the drop-down list when resolution is 1280x1024.
2nd : It isn't easy on the eyes at 60Hz compared to 75Hz, even more when i play games (Quake 3 for example).

  • I have 2 ipod touches on the same apple id account.  Can I set facertime up on both with different access emails?

    I have 2 ipod touches on the same apple ID/account.  My daughter uses one, and I use the other.  Can I set facetime up on each with different access email addresses (so that we don't get each others calls?)?

    I recommend that you
    Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
      Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
    Use the new ID on her iPod but only for:
    Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
    Settings>FaceTime
    Settings>GameCenter
    and Settings>iCloud if you want her to have separate Contacts Calendar and some other things.    
    Continue to use the same/common Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores so you can share purchases.

  • HT201060 How can I set up a new iPad with my 5 year old daughters iCloud address when it won't let me because I've allowed her to be part of my family on my iPad.?

    How can I set up a new iPad with my 5 year old daughters icloud address when the new iPad won't let me cause I've made her part of my family group?

    If you want to migrate your phone to a new iCloud account, start by saving any photo stream photos you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tap the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward pointing arrow), then tap Save to Camera Roll.  If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, choose Keep on My iPhone and provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone.  Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload your data.

    I just purchased a Macbook Pro but unable to set up dual display with samsung syncmaster 2033 via DVI to HDMI port.
    Thank you in advance for help.

    There has been quite a lot of discussion here about driving twin displays with the mini, and more recently about the potential for USB video adapters to facilitate this, particularly in the light of several vendors claiming they have suitable MacOS devices and drivers 'almost ready'.
    The DisplayLink solution seems to be the one most suggested as viable, though it's a pity they have not yet been able to move their drivers from beta - I suspect that puts a few people off. It's therefore good to hear of a real-world experience that should help others decide whether or not to go this route!

  • Setting refresh rate with DisplayMode

    I'm having a problems setting the refresh rate of the DisplayMode, originally I used this method to create a display mode:
    DisplayMode(320, 240, 16, DisplayMode.REFRESH_RATE_UNKNOWN);This worked fine and ran my game at the above resolution, however I want the refresh rate to be 60hz so I tried this:
    DisplayMode(320, 240, 60);The game ran, but the resolution did not change and the game played in a little 320, 240, box in the top left corner of the screen leaving the rest of the screen white. This is the same problem I have when ever I try the GAGE shooter demo.
    Am I setting up the DisplayMode right, or is this a known bug.
    I've only tried this on my computer running winME and the SDK 1.4.2_01.
    Thanks.

    Hmm, I think I'm missing something here but I just looked at GraphicsDevice.java and as far as I can see it doesn't check for refresh rates.
         * Returns the current display mode of this

            GraphicsConfiguration gc = getDefaultConfiguration();
            Rectangle r = gc.getBounds();
            ColorModel cm = gc.getColorModel();
            return new DisplayMode(r.width, r.height, cm.getPixelSize(), 0);//REFRESH_RATE_UNKNOWN = 0; ??

  • Setting refresh rate manuall in display options?

    hi all,
    I have recently received a Dell 1908WFP monitor, which runs at a native resolution of 1440x900x75hz.
    When i connect it to my macbook pro using the mini-display-port-to-VGA-connector, this resolution is detected fine.
    When connecting with the DVI connector, the resolution 1440x900 is setup properly, but the vertical refresh rate is set to 60hz. In display preferences the option for 75hz is greyed out.
    Is there a way to force the refresh rate to 75hz?
    thanks,

  • Can't change Refresh Rate

    To try to get my new Samsung LN-R268W monitor to show what's on the screen of my Power Book G4 (OS 10.4.5), the lady at Samsung Customer Support said I need to make sure my Refresh Rate is 60 hertz. System Preferences>Displays>Color LCD>Display had the Refresh Rate showing a greyed-out "n/a." Advice?

    Is this before or after you've got the image on your
    Samsung? If it's before you've connected it, or used
    the F7 key to toggle to mirror/span mode, the only
    display you'll see under System Preferences is the
    built in display. And the refresh rate for that will
    be "n/a".
    Most monitors will be auto-detected by OS X, and the
    refresh rate will be set without any input. My 20"
    widescreen Dell LCD automagically defaults to 60Hz.
    At any rate, refresh rates for LCDs are kind of
    meaningless - they don't actually refresh like old
    CRT monitors do.

    You're right. Today I learned from talking to somebody that I should turn on my monitor before I turn on my laptop. Page 53 of the Apple manual "Getting Started With Your Powerbook G4" suggested the opposite. However, if I had read page 53 and its reference to page 97 more carefully, I would have checked the "mirroring" box.

  • Can I set 1 laptop wireless connect with static IP to WRT610N?

    I have a WRT610N with 3 PCs wired and various wireless devices accessing.  1 of the wireless devices, running Windows 7, needs to run a static IP.  Do/Can I set this up in the router or do I need to do in the PC?

    You can use DHCP reservation in the router to assign a fixed IP address to the PC.
    Or you can set the static IP address on the PC directly.

  • Can;t set up iCloud in Mail with Mavericks

    Hi,
    I am unable to set up icloud in mail.  II used migration assistant tto migrate from an older macbook pro running mavericks to a new one and for some reason there was an issue with iCloud Mail.  I then tried to add the account and despite no error messages, it fails to display in Mail.
    I am able to set up other accounts like Gmail and Exchange and they behave properly.  I have the latest version of Mail v7 (updated) and have successfully set up iCloud using a test account on my mac.  This means that the problem is user specific. I have tried removing mail dir in library and plists in preferences to set up mail again but with no luck.
    Does anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks

    Hello,
    I just got a Mac for a first time and I'm trying to configure Mail 3.5 with my gmail account and even after having followed all the steps seen on this forum, I just can't do it. The messages that come up are:
    "The IMAP server "imap.gmail.com" is not responding. Try checking the network connection, and that the server name is correct. Otherwise, the server might be temporarily unavailable. If you continue, you might not be able to receive messages"
    AND
    "The SMTP server "smtp.gmail.com" is not responding. Try checking the network connection, and that the server name is correct. Otherwise, the server might be temporarily unavailable. If you continue, you might not be able to send messages"
    it might be very basic but I can't manage. Can anyone help??
    Thanks in advance!!

  • Can't set up Airport base stations with new MacBook Pro

    i have a brand new, late-2013 15" MacBook Pro running Mavericks. my attempts, using this machine, to set up my sixth-generation, 802.11ac Airport Extreme and my brand-new, whatever-generation 802.11n Airport Express purchased yesterday at an Apple Store (that means it's the current generation, with the power cord) - these attempts all fail with Airport Utility saying it's joining the base station for about a minute and a half, after which it stops trying and says, "An unexpected error occurred. Please try again."
    i can set up both of those base stations effortlessly with my iPhone.
    furthermore, i seem to be able to use this MacBook Pro to set up my fifth-generation, 802.11n Airport Extreme just fine - even when it's all the way across the house and my attempts to set up the sixth-generation one, which is a foot away from my MBP, are failing.
    why can i set these devices up with my iPhone and not with the newest, best, fastest, fanciest, most powerful laptop Apple makes?
    thank you.

    mmm...okay. thank you, Bob.
    for now, i've got the base stations configured via my iPhone, and once configured, my MBP can see and use them just fine. it just irks the **** out of me that my brand-new top-of-the-line MacBook Pro can't handle this simple task, and should have to use a wired connection to set up my base stations (how archaic!). it may be the only device i have with me one day when i want to set up an Airport base station (okay, that's unlikely, but it's the principle of the thing, dammit).
    are we sure this is a matter of bugs in Mavericks, and not a hardware problem with my MBP or something?
    many thanks.
