Maybe you are using GRUB2 with the GFX options this link talks about:

That probably has a similar effect to the "vga=" option in the command
line. Removing them, or adding "vga=0" (or both, to be extra safe) should
do.
I am on grub2. Makes total sense now, for some reason I was not putting
the GFX options together with the VGA.
Does that mean gfxmode should also =0 ? Instead of auto or a specific
resolution?
GRUB2 documentation is notably difficult to read, but from
http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/Simple-configuration.html#Simple-configuration
I
guess that the relevant option to disable this feature is to use
"GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=text"
instead of "GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep".
Thanks again for your input and time to find those links to share. The
last with text was ticket for me. No need for vga=0 with that.
The only downfall though with having to do this is if I go to a
different TTY the text is massive, I get why it is just sucks, I liked
having normal size text when on the terminal.
Again thank you, hopefully Nvidia will get this sorted out soon and can
go back to the old method.
