The video card affects this more than the monitor. What card do you have?Originally Posted by foobar
When I boot Knoppix 3.2 from CDROM, I believe that it sets the refresh frequency of my 19" Sony Triniton to be lower than what Windows 2000 does, since it flickers...
How can I modify the refresh frequency. I have tried to use the KDA X configuration tool but it asks me for the root pasword, and the FAQ states that there is none...
Thanks,
Tim

CheatCodes, RTFM
Try "knoppix xvrefresh=80" if you want 80Hz refresh.
If you want to use KDE X config, open a terminal and enter "sudo passwd". Follow the instructions and you have a root passwordHow can I modify the refresh frequency. I have tried to use the KDA X configuration tool but it asks me for the root pasword, and the FAQ states that there is none...
Thanks Henk.
I did read the general FAQ, but obviously no in enough detail.
The cheatcodes help a lot, and in the end it seems that the frequency was ok, the problem was that the X server selects a VESA driver and not an ATI. Using xmodule=ati the screen does not flicker.
Many thanks.
