HELP! whit screen

[Alchemist22]

Hi, i am currently running f8, and am having a frustrating time getting regnum to work. I have read threads and seem pictures in other posts about this problem (white screen, can see things barely). However, i have not seen any clear solution. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

...okay i just tried my old kernel and that did not work either, and i know i spelled white wrong in the thread title, my bad.

okay, maybe there is now way to fix it? but can anyone tell me how to revert to an old driver that would work for fedora 8? im not sure how to do that....

What graphics driver are you using? If you are using one from the 169.*-series, try one from the 100.*-series instead. I'm not sure if it is related, but I thought it could be this problem:

i am using the 169.07 driver

$ cat /proc/driver/nvidia/version
NVRM version: NVIDIA UNIX x86 Kernel Module 169.07 Thu Dec 13 18:42:56 PST 2007
GCC version: gcc version 4.1.2 20070925 (Red Hat 4.1.2-33)


how do you know which driver to download an install? im a bit confused at the idea, i have never had to do it before.

The only solution I have seen to this problem so far is to roll back to the 100.14.19 version of the nvidia drivers.
