I found that higher rate is better for me visually. From my xrandr
output above, my ATI card can support 75Hz rate but its running at 60
now. Indeed, I can xrandr it to 75 now but the setting would be gone
on the next reboot.

By the way, any suggestion on which startup script would be best to
place the xrandr command, ie. rc.local, Xsession, etc?
