Not sure if any of these suggestions are of any use. Either look in the monitor manual for the horizontal and vertical refresh rates, and use them or use the lowest values possible to begin with. Out of interestr what is the model name and details perhaps another lug member has a similar monitor and can help with manuals. Under Suse you can select from a range of monitors, not sure on the situation under red hat, however I think they have a similar setup. ( however I assume you have done this). Does you monitor work ok try under windoze or anothe rmachime, same goes for your graphics card, it could be dodgy or not working properly.
