[visionegg] Re: Cloned monitor at a different refresh rate

I just came across a forum post that describes how to get Powerstrip to
allow you to adjust the refresh rates of both monitors independently, even
if one is cloned off of the other one (normally, Powerstrip only lets you
adjust the refresh rate of the primary monitor when in clone mode). Works
like a charm:

Unfortunately, it still doesn't get around OpenGL's behaviour of slowing
down the buffer swap rate to the refresh rate of the slower of the cloned
monitors.
