Set Screen Refresh Rate?

[Subhro]

You need to edit the HSync (Horizontal Synchronization Rate) and VSync
(Vertical Synchronization Rate) Parameters in your XFree86
configuration file. Btw why do you want to go for a lower resolution.
X, in most cases detects the monitor and video subsystem and selects
the most optimized settings.

S.
