The livna readme

That would be the NVIDIA driver README.  Livna has absolutely nothing
to do with it.

I had a similar problem with the refresh rates as you seem to have. I found
that whilst the nv driver found all the modes my screen can support just
fine, the nvidia driver (I have to use the 1.0-71xx driver since my card is
quite elderly) did not. The problem for me was the driver was not getting the
horizontal and vert frequencies correctly, and default to very safe values...
This can be easily fixed by supply your own. Add a section like

This is inaccurate.  The driver always tries to obtain the correct
information from the EDID in your display device.  Now if your display
device has no EDID, or the EDID is broken in some way, then the driver
is going to fall back to safe defaults, which can still be overridden.
