 Title:
   Compiz refresh rate resets to 50 Hz automatically w/ Nvidia
   proprietary driver

 Status in Compiz:
   In Progress
 Status in One Hundred Papercuts:
   Triaged
 Status in “compiz” package in Ubuntu:
   In Progress

 Bug description:
   There have been similar bug reports to this one, such as bug #1009338
   and bug #1027868, but I believe this case is different.

   The problem I am having is that even after I set the refresh rate
 options in compiz to 60 Hz (after disabling the Detect Refresh Rate
 option), a reboot will have the settings revert. If I change settings in
 the compiz config settings manager, they should remain even after a reboot.

Indeed! Or at least respect the user-set frequency instead of resetting it

 If this bug isn't going to be fixed the correct way, at least hard
 code compiz to default to 60Hz. How often is 50Hz really the correct
 default these days? Mind you, the default stuttery performance with the
 nvidia binary driver on 14.04 could hardly be called 50Hz. My Amiga 1200
 did 50Hz scrolling in the early 1990s and that was extremely smooth,
 even on a CRT running at 15.6kHz/50Hz.
