I'm stuck at the moment at a 60hz refresh rate in Linux.
Since i'm kind of newbie I have no clue how to change it,
I tried to do it through the menu I found but it doesn't work, now I'm trying to do it by manually editing the config file, but don't know what to change
My monitor has a vertical refresh rate of 50-160 and a horizontal refresh rate of 30-95
I want to have at least a refresh rate of 85hz.
Can anyone tell me what I have to change?
Here is the config file:

# By default, Red Hat 6.0 and later now use a font server independent of
# the X server to render fonts.
