As per bug 446726,  I'm having trouble getting X in F9 to drive my
monitor at usable settings. If my experimentation with
system-config-display's command line options is any indication, I need
to force usage of a vertical refresh rate of 60 Hz. But so far I haven't
found the right incantation for xorg.conf. I've tried this
unsuccessfully:

        Section "Device"
                Identifier  "Videocard0"
                Driver      "mga"
        EndSection
        
        Section "Monitor"
                Identifier "Monitor0"
                VertRefresh 60
        EndSection
        
        Section "Screen"
                Identifier "Screen0"
                Device     "Videocard0"
                Monitor    "Monitor0"
                DefaultDepth     24
                SubSection "Display"
                        Viewport   0 0
                        Depth     24
                EndSubSection
        EndSection
        
Any suggestions?
