the easiest way to do this is to just change the config file directly, I
guess, although mine just did it, expertly choosing the highest refresh rate
for the resolution-
when Xconfigurator runs, it should be allowed to "auto test" the refresh
rates. you should only be running Xconfig from init level 3, it seems to not
run well from X.

ALthough this site pertains to Nvidia drivers for linux, it will teach you
alot about the XF86Config-4.
