--- Begin Message ---Package: grub-pc Version: 1.96+20090721-3 Severity: minor --- Please enter the report below this line. --- I think that this is a separate and minor problem in respect to bug 535026, thus I'm writing this bug report. I have upgraded to grub2 because of its support to ext4 / partition and tried to replicate the behavior of its predecessor. The option that seems to be completely ignored is vga=865 (i.e:1280x800), I have also tried to use set gfxpayload=1280x800x32 as suggested at boot time by grub since a message warns that vga=XXX is deprecated, but the situation didn't improve. Given that I'm not so experienced to put my hands on the scripts inside /etc/grub.d/ and the documentation on grub2 is almost missing, there is something that I'm doing wrong or is this a minor bug? How can I help to fix?
