Same here, thanks. I tried the new nvidia-settings: the mess is much
worst than the precedent. It seems Nvidia works hand in hand with
Microsoft to get Linux users infuriated. So, how to I revert back to
the nouveau driver? Will "yum remove kmod-nvidia" revert the system to
the nouveau driver working with the most recent kernel?

yum does offer to remove kmod-nvidia.
