Hi Everyone, I have an ancient D800 with a mobililty geared Geforce 4 video card. The laptop is mostly useless, but since it's still working and browsing the net on it is OK, I wanted to install F17 on it. In went F17, out went the video. :( The nouveau driver gave me a screen full of artifacts and a block for a cursor. Large sections of the screen were unreadable. I tried to use the proprietary legacy drivers from Nvidia, but the installer bombs out. It used to work on F15 until a kernel update broke it. Something changed and that change made it all the way to F17's kernels. Does anyone know why the nouveau driver isn't working for me? Are there any workarounds? I'd also appreciate hearing about any workaround's for the proprietary installer error, if any.
