Refresh rate is a common video parameter that I can think of, and often specified with resolution. Since vidcontrol refers to the console driver, however, it's probably not going to be terribly significant, console being mostly low-res text. If there is a way to specify refresh rate, I didn't find it in man vidcontrol.3) I change resolution for consoles as vidcontrol -g 100x37 VESA_800x600 green. Can I change rate? How to do it?
I don't know what rate you mean.
If the resolution/refresh under X is what you need to change, having the appropriate modelines in the X config file(if the defaults aren't suitable) will allow you to use CTRL-ALT-Keypad+ and -Keypad- to cycle through the available resolutions. As long as the "Section Monitor ... EndSection" segment of the file properly defines the HorizSync(usually in kHz) and VertRefresh(usu. Hz) parameters of the monitor, the default available modes are usually sufficient; having those settings in there will, I believe, prevent X from trying to use a refresh rate that is not within your monitor's capacity even if it's specified.
