Hi,
I've done as you suggested and put the Preferred Mode option into my config file - hasn't made any difference - The server/driver/xrandr *thinks* the screen is being driven at 85Hz - but it's still 82Hz.

There *has* to be something broken somewhere - I've been using this PC with Linux for about nine months and have only been getting headaches in the last two. And I haven't been changing the config file at all until I got the headaches.

The Modeline is exactly the same as on a Mandriva 2007 partition which drives exactly the same monitor at 85Hz.

xrandr output (plain and verbose) to follow.
Also screen photographic proof to follow.

Regards,
Mark.
