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

Status in Compiz:
  Fix Released
Status in One Hundred Papercuts:
  Triaged
Status in compiz package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

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.
