I've just installed the nVidia driver 185.18.14 on 4.2 amd64 and keep pushing me back to a 60 Hz refresh rate.
I've tried editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf by hand: vi, gedit even through gksu nvidia-settings.The file stays as supposed:
- Code: Select all
# nvidia-settings: X configuration file generated by nvidia-settings
