Does anyone konw how to detect the vertical retrace sync under Linux?

I need to make a very smooth crawl on the screen (may show on TV later), the effect of Banner in KDE screensaver is pretty close, but it is not smooth enought. From some material, I know that the way to avoid the tearing is synching with the retrace.

Does anyone know how to dectect the vertical retrace under Linux? I am using RedHat 7.3 right now.
