Stripes on screen after installing Fedora

[Marcelo M. Garcia]

Hi

A quick test: after the boot, when you are looking at the stripes, press 
       "ctrl"+"alt"+F1, and you should see the login prompt. And return 
to the stripes, press, "ctrl"+"alt"+F7.

You said that you driver is 175.19, but seems that the latest driver in 
NVIDIA page is 173.14[1].

Did you updated your system including the driver from Livna?

Are you sure about the configuration of the monitor?

Regards

Marcelo
