[all variants] [SOLVED] Unable to change Refresh Rate with Nvidia drivers.

[qedqed]

Hello, I had this problem for 2 days without any luck searching on the web:

I wasn't able to change the refresh rate on my system. It was always stuck at 60Hz no matter of what i was setting.

System:
Ubuntu 9.04 64-bit
Nvidia drivers 180.44 (installed by ubuntu)
GeForce 8800GTS 512
A 1280x1024 75Hz capable monitor connected through DVI


SOLUTION:
$ nvidia-settings
Expand "GPU 0 - ( ... )".
Select the monitor submenu.
UnCheck "Force Full GPU Scaling" that was setted by default.
You are done.


The other suggestions that i found was just wrong in my case. I hope this can help.
