Does anyone have a shareware or freeware utility that will show the refresh
rate of a monitor. I have just installed Linux on an old laptop and the
monitor flickers in Linux but not in Windows. I'd like to find out what the
Windows refresh rate is so that I can change it in Linux.

Right click on desktop, properties, settings tab, click on advanced,
monitor tab. At least with my adapter, under w2k it shows the current
and other available refresh rates

Follow up for anyone that is curious. He gets a 20% commission for
anyone buying within a year.
Appears that their intention is for folks to post a referral on a web
site or through friends. Not SPAM every question with your referral
crap.
Should this continue, I for one will send abuse headers to Sympatico,
Hotmail, Google and Cert21.

Thanks I guess it only works with 2000 or above. I've got 98 on this one
and I can't find it there.
There's got to be something somewhere.

No, Win98 should also tell you the refresh rate. (as should your
monitor's OSD, assuming it has one) But what's the point of messing
with all that, though?

Just increase the refresh rate in Linux until it looks nice.

(Admits), had to look it up to remember the trick. Link says it better
than I, but basically, if the monitor tab lists default monitor, no
refresh rate is listed in the adapter info.

Should have added that I believe the refresh rate would then be a
default 60.
If you can find the manual for the monitor, or Google it, there should
be a specification listed for maximum the monitor can take.
