Did you try a ctrl-alt-F1 to see if you can get a text mode prompt? If
so, you might be able to run XConfigurator to get the graphics mode
working again.

Subject: [Nolug] Help!
>Ok so I installed that WineX thing, no problems there. Once I had
it, it told me to run a check on my graphics card. I did and it came
out negative, so it told me to change the config. Well I switched to
my M$ side and got all the information about my graphics card.
(GeForce 2, 32MB etc) Back in the linux box i searched for my display
options, and under that i looked for my graphics card. I found it,
and after applying it, it told me to reboot so the changes would take
place. Did this and when it went back to the "blue curve" interface
(i'am using red hat 8) all i could see was red and black and green
vertical lines. Could not see anything else. No way for me to change
the display options back. What do I do??? Is there a way to fix this
without re-installing linux? Some one please help
