Confirmed. The Displays control panel doesn't let you change the refresh
rate.
If I open a terminal however and type "xrandr" I can see there are other
refresh rates possible. It's just that the Gnome (3.x) Displays control
panel doesn't let you change it any more.
** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu)
Status: Invalid => Confirmed

Title:
[regression] Can't change refresh rate in Displays
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
First thing I noticed when booting Precise was the screen flickering.
Yes, I'm still using a CRT. I don't see any way to make the
flickering go away by setting the refresh rate to something sane (for
a CRT).
