Also, I can definitely tell the difference between hz. It hurts your eyes more when using 60 than 120. Back on windows, I could use 120 hz when I used 1024 x 768 or lower resolution (for 1152 x 868 - 1280 x 960 I could use 100 hz) but now I can only use 85 hz on ubuntu, despite the resolution I use (even using 320 x 175). Does anyone know the problem? This is another thing I've tried to solve, but I can't seem to figure it out. I remember back in windows if I used Plug and Play setting, I would only get a max hz of 85 like on ubuntu. If I am using plug and play, how do I change that? Also, I have posted 3 threads before on different problems giving specifications, and details on the issue. Few tried to solve my problem, but after that, the thread was not getting any replies. I also hope the next release of wine will fix my problem as Yokozar said.
If you guys can help, here is some information:
OS: Ubuntu 8.04
Processor: Pentium 4 2.6 Ghz
Display: Dell P991 CRT Screen
Video Card: Nvidia GeForce 5200 fx 128 mb memory
Wine Version: 1.0-rc1
Any help is greatly appreciated, also thanks for everyone who replied on this thread.
And, what is the winbind package? I installed it from the link Yokozar posted.
Note: I'm talking about refresh rate not FPS.
You monitor is probably not configured correctly in your xorg.conf. As long as your vertical and horizontal refresh rates are entered correctly in the xorg.conf, it should be able to do the same exact thing it does in Windows. However, the Nvidia driver does do a really weird thing to accommodate Nvidia's Dynamic Twin View functions. Basically it creates custom monitor configurations that report the wrong refresh rate to the OS, even though it is actually running at the correct refresh rate. For example, on my monitor, if it says it is running at 54Hz, that actually means 85Hz. You can make it report the correct refresh rate by editing your xorg.conf and adding this under the display adapter section:
Code:
Option DynamicTwinView "False"
Make sure you log out and restart the X server after making the change.
