Nvidia: Xorg displaying 50 Hz but uses 60 Hz

[Paul Menzel]

Dear X.org folks,


there seems to be a bug where the wrong refresh rate is displayed to the
one which is used [1][2].

Despite setting

    VertRefresh    50.0

60 Hz is used when not setting an explicit modeline.

Is that a bug in the X server or of the Nvidia proprietary driver?


Thanks,
