XConfigurator may very well work for you.  If, like I do, you have a video 
card or monitor that isn't supported with the current version of XFree86, 
then it is a bit more involved.  I use xf86config which allows you to 
manually input your vertical and horizontal sync ranges.  It is done in 
console, so you are not using the X envirnoment.  It might be best to tell 
us what monitor you are using and what video card for more specifics.
