        What does your X log say?
        
        
        I believe this is the relevant portion 
        
         (II) NVIDIA(0): Detected AGP rate: 8X
        (--) NVIDIA(0): Interlaced video modes are supported on this GPU
        (--) NVIDIA(0): Connected display device(s) on GeForce FX 5700
        Ultra at
        (--) NVIDIA(0):     PCI:2:0:0:
        (--) NVIDIA(0):     Samsung SyncMaster (CRT-0)
        (--) NVIDIA(0):     CRT-1
        (--) NVIDIA(0): Samsung SyncMaster (CRT-0): 400 MHz maximum
        pixel clock
        (--) NVIDIA(0): CRT-1: 400 MHz maximum pixel clock
        (II) NVIDIA(0): Assigned Display Devices: CRT-0, CRT-1
        (II) NVIDIA(0): Validated modes:
        (II) NVIDIA(0):     "1280x1024_60.00,1280x1024_60.00"
        (II) NVIDIA(0): Virtual screen size determined to be 2560 x 1024
        (--) NVIDIA(0): DPI set to (90, 96); computed from "UseEdidDpi"
        X config option
        (--) Depth 24 pixmap format is 32 bpp
        
         Hopefully this helps, I dont think I am getting 60 Hz though ?
