Hmmmm, thanks for the response, but I am pretty sure that the figures you
give are for an external monitor. From what I can tell the refresh rate
for the LCD display is hard set to 60 Hz.
Anyway, I got it up and running just fine, I set the first choice in
xf86config to be the one that says "Can do 1024x768 at 60 Hz", and the
next one I told it to use "50-70". Pardon the lack of details, I left my
laptop at home.
Anyway, it seems to work just fine, except some snow effects when I have
an eterm open next to an xterm.

Aquariums are just interactive televison for cats.
