Try the instructions at:
<http://www.sharplabs.com:8668/space/Configuration+of+XF86Config>
What type of monitor do you have?
This is an example of the type of refreesh rate numbers that should
be in your file. The numbers are specific to you monitor and you
should google the 'net to find the ones specific to your monitor.
---example----
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "LCD Monitor"
# HorizSync 30-94
# VertRefresh 50-75
Option "DPMS" "true"
EndSection
---example----
Good luck
