Hi everyone! First time approaching Fedora, just freshly installed it and also installed all NVIDIA driver following guides about rpm fusion. Unfortunately I still cannot change my display resolution and it is unusable due to this glitch on the screen. I also run it in double boot with windows 11 and on win11 I never ran into this kind of problem and honestly I’m new to linux systems. I tried troubleshooting by myself using different Reddit posts but I still haven’t found a solution. Any kind of help would be awesome thanks in advance and have a good day

Thanks for all the info provided, I did read carefully the instructions and also followed your commands, the resolution got fixed but I still have these horizontal lines on monitor, I don’t know why it’s very strange, it maybe something monitor related because if I do connect another monitor it works well. I thought could be the monitor itself but at the same time on win 11 it works well. So maybe there is something fedora doesn’t like about my main monitor.
I just needed to switch from 144hz to 240hz and it solved automatically, thanks a lot! Is there some maybe “smaller” guide that I can follow to do troubleshooting by myself? Also like a general guide to Fedora/Linux systems. (Guides, YT videos, whatever) Because every now and then I will for sure encounter some other kind of problem as it is literally my first linux distro I installed. Thing is I feel overwhelmed by the amount of things I need to know.
small guide is hard to come by, as the linux/unix eco system has expanded/grown a lot in the last three decades
Usually just use the system and then try to find solutions or info about a specific issue or topic.
A good source is usually the arch wiki, docs.fedoraproject.org and to some degree also docs.redhat.com (more RHEL related).
Usually be more cautious with search engine results. Info could be outdated or plain wrong. And don’t hesitate to ask here.
